| Sunset over the Beach at Lovely Cape Cod |
In honor of Thanksgiving, let’s take a trip to the area
where the USA got its start: the Massachusetts coast. The Mayflower’s first contact with American
soil was at Cape Cod in November of 1620.
They later headed across the Cape Cod Bay to settle at Plymouth and
after persisting through a lot of hard work and heartache, celebrated the first Thanksgiving.
It’s easy to feel thankful in Cape Cod. It is a place of natural beauty, with
sweeping sand dunes, the deep blue sea, a variety of wildlife, and breathtaking
sunsets. If your visit coincides with
Thanksgiving, the weather probably won’t invite you to don your bikini and dive
into the Atlantic… but it is a lovely time to enjoy the gorgeous scenery and
charming Cape Cod towns. Be sure to
visit the Pilgrim Monument, which commemorates the Mayflower Pilgrim’s first
landing.
Where are you celebrating Thanksgiving this year?
