Plymouth, a great place for seafood, clams, lobster rolls and a lot of fried stuff.
As a Californian for 25+ years, the land of fruits and nuts(yes, both figurative and literatally)- Do you guys always eat a lot of fried stuff?
I and a sister stayed in "a cottage", New England small beach house. Plymouth is a trip back in time to the days when a few family members would go to the beach---6 Coffey's, 12 Murphy's, 4-8 Devlin's all descended on the 5 Mullen's 2 room cottage for a few days. It was always fun but a blur as you are overwhelmed with cousins. Things never change!
The warm summer ,Plymouth beach or White Horse are beautiful not just in my memory but as I walked along as an adult I see the true beauty of this area.
Places to see include Plymouth Rock, which is a bit disappointing as it is so small and no one really knows if this is "the exact rock" but commemorate it all the same. I like the cemeteries walk through and see all the "original" settlers. Food which is always a top on my list, go to the Lobster hut. Also, try steamers or steamed mussels in any of the small local restaurants.
Enjoy some local club with live music on a Friday to get the local flair(most likely there will be someone related to me).
Plymouth is summer fun, bbq's, beach bonfires,pleasant seafood meals, lite shopping, ice cream and of course mosquito's!
Now as far as actual names of places to eat I need my family to post there "best of" in the plymouth, cape cod area . Please tell me the name of the thai place, it looks like a small coffee shop?

ReplyDeleteI also remember trips to the beach with 6 Coffee's, 8 Clarks, and 6 ONeils in one station wagon; seat belts for 23 anyone?? Never heard of them. (Don't forget to add three fathers when you're doing the math above.)
