Cape Codddd

Wow......we posted like nothing over the summer...
Nothing exciting  really happened in the summer for me. I just chilled around like a potato. :) But the highlight of my summer was probably my vacation to Cape Cod, Massachusetts. I've been waiting the whole summer to go because I had an amazing time last year. It was supposed to be a 4 1/2 hour ride, but there was soo much traffic; it ended up being a 6 hour ride. -___- I felt soo fat during the car ride because we sat in the car for hours and my parents were too lazy to stop for lunch. So they forced us to eat chips, cookies, and dip to keep us full. I never thought my parents would make us eat junk food. Ever. ayy not complaining. XD
we packed soo much...majority is food and beach stuff...but you can't really see it.
The next day (Sunday), we enjoyed our lovely view of the water in our backyard. Since the house provided us with boats, we obviously had  to ride on them. :) My brother and my mom went on the paddle boat, while my dad and I went on the kayak. We went kinda far and decided to go to the canal. Since it is a canal, and all the water from the ocean is coming in, the current is much stronger. It was easy for us to go in because we were going with the current. But exiting the canal was nearly impossible because we are going against it. Apparently, the paddleboat was already broken and going against the current didn not help at all. Kayaks are stronger and idk built better? so they can get across if you paddle with enough strength. I tried to do it, and I got across!! YAYY!!  My dad could have done it too, but he stayed with mah bro and mom. My parents sent me back home to bring them an extra paddle, rope, and food. I did as I was told..except I may have forgotten the most important survival tool..the paddle HEHE WHOOPS. Eh...well they didn't really need it cuz my parents climbing up rocks to ask fishermans to get the boat across the rocks, and  out of the canal. All my hard work to come back was for nothing. -__- Then we realized that it was low tide, and they could have walked the boat across. woww!! soo smartt!!!! They did walk the boat back home instead; it was much faster that way. As they were walking, they noticed tons of mussels that bordered the lake. TONSSSS OF THEM!! That's what we had for lunch...and dinner mostly everyday. I don't like mussels..buttt uhhhh they give u muscles right? ;
our view from  the windoowww
its soo pertyyy
GRACE TO DA RESCUE :)

attempting to get across...but failing
^^^loook at those mussels...
my mom and bro harvesting mussels and my leg XD

lunchh
On Monday, my cousin and my uncle joined us. We decided to go biking cuz its fun and they are athletic... so why not? We went to a bike trail called Nickerson Bike Trail. My cousin and my uncle bike fast and I was able to catch up with them. However, my family were kinda behind...mainly from my brother though. He kept complaining that his legs hurt and he rode really slow. We were already half way done with the trail until my family decided to head back. My uncle, cousin, and I wanted to continue, so we did. We made it to the end of the trail!!! Just to make it to the end of the trail, was 24 miles. 24 miles to bike back. yayy! I literally felt like I was going to faint because I was soo dehydrated. My parents had my water....like how smarttt. Luckily, my family stopped at this ice cream parlor and waited for us there. My mom bought me ice cream. Just saying.NEVER get the ice cream called Moose Droppings. It doesn't even sound appealing, but I ordered it anyways. hehe. It's vanilla with brown chunks of poop. All I know is that it's not chocolate. Yeah....so I biked 48 miles just that day. My legs were soo soreee afterwards..Fun fact: I biked 84 miles in total on my vacation.

:) For 3 nights straight, we watched a movie called Bourne. Its an action packed series with tons of killing and stuff.  and this guy had amnesia and he basically has to find out who he is while all these people are chasing him and he doesn't know why. It's a  pretty epic movie..although there is tons of murdering and stuff....and i screamed and flinched like every 5 seconds...butt errr ya but other then that.. totally recommend :)  oh yaaa and mah cousins and aunt and uncle also arrived that night.
taking a pic while biking cuz im cool like that
movie night and salsa!! yerrmmm!!
On Tuesday, we went on a 2 hour ferry to Nantucket. It's a little island full of tiny shops and beaches.  It's literally soo beautiful there and the it reminded me a lot of the 80's and 90's. All the shops were soo cute and I guess Nantucket is known for their whales? idk. But all the stores sold soo many whales stuff and I got obsessed with them. Sadly, I didn't buy any whale merchandise because everything there is soo expensive.  XDD I WANT A PET WHALLEEEE!!People in Nantucket are extremely rich!! Most of the streets are made out of really big rocks and people drive around with Ferraris. Some people even own 2! 2! like that cray cray.  We mainly went to Nantucket for the beaches. There are soo many beaches...afterall, it is surrounded by the ocean. The water was soo blue and clean and warm. We walked so far into the ocean, and the water was still up to our ankles. I love those types of beaches XD There were tons of shells and rocks all over da place so we had to pick some....(ahem) 20 billionnn. We spent soo much time at the beach, we didn't notice the time. The ferry to go back to Cape Cod was departing in 15 minutes (4:00) and it's a long walk to get there. Just imagine 10 people running with beach stuff and bags in the busy streets screaming "LET'S GOOO!! RUN FASTER!!" yaa we probably made a fool of ourselves -__- and it was all for nothing. We got there exactly at 4 and there was a huge line and we asked them if they were on line for the ferry. They said yesh. Until we realized, they were on line for a different ferry. LIKE FMLLLL. WE COULD HAVE MADE IT!! The next ferry was at 8 and we would get back at 10. It wasn't that big of a deal, we didn't have to rush and we could walk around and go into the stores. hehe sorry...I didn't take pics of the stores...which I really should have. -__- But I got to see more whales. :) I REALLYY WANT ONEE MAHNNN! It was finally time to get on the ferry! When it got really dark, my mom, uncle, and I decided to go on the upper deck of the ferry where it's like extremely cold. There were soo many stars!!! We brought a blanket and a towel for us to sit on the ground and just look at them. Then, my mom created this contest thing of who can count the most stars. BUT BABY, I BEEN, I BEEN PLAYIN' HARD.SAID NO MORE COUNTING DOLLARS. YEAH, WE'LL BE COUNTING STARS!...sorry I had to do it...hehehe. My mom counted something in 300's and I got 200 sumting. yeah..she probably won...but there were probably 11234567890 stars there. XDD
LOOK AT ALL THOSE BOATS! Some of them cost millions of dollars. AND they hire people to clean their boats. WHADDAPOOP
