Trip to Nantucket, Pt. 4

Well, here we arrive at the

very last post on my trip...

I successfully shared with you

all three hundred of my pictures!

 Here's the final batch:

Walking around town on our last day . . .

The interesting side of the Ralph Lauren shop

After our stroll, we stopped again at the Whaling Museum . . .

Skeleton of a Sperm Whale

(this particular one washed up on the

shores of Nantucket a few years ago

... it was HUGE!)

Really puts things into

perspective on how difficult

and frightening the occupation

of a whaler must have been

View from the museum's observation deck

Adorable weather vane

(I want one!)

After the museum, we went for lunch at the Ropewalk . . .

It doesn't get more waterfront than this!

My signature Malibu Bay Breeze

I was absolutely in love with this view

Our light lunch consisting of a Caesar Salad 

and Hot Crab dip... just perfect!

After lunch we dropped in here

and sampled their delicious homemade

fudge; I highly recommend it!

Back at Straight Wharf, we decided to walk

down the private road to see all 

the beautiful houses close-up . . .

So charming... I love the old

rusty anchors outside the door

I could get used to this view, what about you?

My mom's favorite house on the island

So cute!

Walking back through town . . .

Lovely

Such great doorways!

Absolutely gorgeous

At one point in the day, we stopped at the 

Nantucket Lite Candle & Soap Company, 

and I completely splurged and bought myself  

an authentic Nantucket Lightship Basket!

Isn't it beautiful?!

Reproduction scrimshaw of the Brant Point Lighthouse

After resting in the inn for a bit, we got ready to
have our last dinner at The Brotherhood of Thieves . . .

Outside the inn

At the restaurant, sampling Cisco Brewers' 
other beer, Sankaty Light Lager... thumbs up!

New England Clam Chowder

Chatham Day Boat Cod Tyrolian

with sauteed roasted peppers, crispy fried onions,

and a yellow roasted tomato fondue... delish!

If I had to recommend any one restaurant on the island 

of Nantucket, The Brotherhood of Thieves would be it!

Munching on some cookies in bed at the inn

The next morning, we unforunately had to 

depart and board on the High-Speed ferry

back to Hyannis... naturally, I was sad (still am!)

 Saying goodbye to the beautiful island...

Approaching Brant Point

(I had my penny ready to toss into the sea;

this superstition assures your return...

I threw two over, just in case!)

Breathtaking

Bye, Nantucket... see you again soon!
