Finally got a vacation outside of New York City...Visiting my sister and her family at their summer house on Buzzards Bay on Cape Cod ( Falmouth).
House is right across road from bay...beautiful 1920's Arts and Crafts place with a three storey atrium and period details.
Went swimming a lot and just generally enjoyed being with whole family.
Temperatures on Cape were almost same as NYC but felt about 20 degrees cooler...sea breezes versus city pollution?
Bus ride was semi-enjoyable....rode up sitting next to man who lives with wife on Cape and commutes into NYC every week. He had an i-phone gadget that showed maps and details of traffic jams we are in. Receives satellite signals.
He is IT guy... sometimes didn't understand what he was talking about in terms of his work!
Traffic extremely heavy on Cape-- has that in common with NYC. Got caught in traffic jam near Bourne Bridge that seemed endless.
Feels weird to come home from my sister's cool, immaculate house to my cluttered, hotbox apartment!
Hope to start on Physical Therapy for my wrist SOON.
