Kristy’s birthday
Posted by matthieu under: Birthday; Travels
Part 1 (July 1st): The birthday
On the evening of the 1st of July we went out at the John Harvard’s Brew House in Harvard square and got a few beers, buffalo wings and birthday nachos (no they were no candles on the nachos 
) to celebrate Kristy’s 26th birthday.
Part 2 (July 14th): The present
Due to some scheduling constraint, we decided to spend Kristy’s birthday ‘weekend trip’ present during the weekend of July 14th. The location was a surprise, we drove south-east of Boston… and if you look at a map you probably know where we went cause there’s only one thing in that direction: Cape Cod 
. We rented a little studio apartment in Dennis Port from a coworker of mine, it was a very nice place.
We went out for some lobster and clams on Friday night, and we also got a very good homemade ice cream for dessert. On Saturday we spent our whole day at the beach near Orleans (not the French city that would be a bit far…). We mostly relaxed on the beach, I did a bit of surfing (waves were small and too many people around but still fun) and tried to make Kristy surf as well. She’s not ready to go to Hawaii yet, but we’ll go back in a more quiet place so she can practice with less people watching… that should relief some of the pressure .
We chilled a little on Sunday morning and then headed home early to try to avoid the horrible traffic jams from the Cape to Boston.
