Cape cod area info?

Does a Hercules helicopter have the capability to carry the sign down here? GFS

One might carry the weight but the windage wouldd be a killer. I think you'd be better off making the snowman!! I'd come down to see THAT!

I`ll need another bilge pump ,unless I use the other stuff that people still like down here.

...but I heard you were the "coolest" one around. That snowman won't be in any danger and you "won't need no freaking" bilge pump!

Sorry been away from the computer for a little while
The plan is spending next Friday and Saturday in falMouth mass
And see what ever we can in those days. Then Sunday and Monday in Connecticut then Tuesday through Thursday in Boston.
The Boston part is tentative. If there is better suggestions please let me know. I am just getting out of s Florida with the kids and hoping to see what we can. So it is pretty low key change of scenery. Kids are finished with school and need a break!
So with that information please help with plans!
Would love to see some museums,nautical stuff. Love to see the local stuff and some good food! I would also love to pick up that 27 foot center console that was for sale up there but I would more then likely have to live in it when I got home!! So some seacraft stuff would be cool!
Since we are from south Florida that has no history, if we could see some historical things that would be very cool as well!
Thanks everyone!

Rbol, Lots of great advice here...If you make it to the Cape stop at one of the outer cape beaches in the National Seashore and walk thru the NS Visitor Center in Eastham, The seals in Chatham and their town Fish Pier are worth checking out...the fish pier has a nice viewing area to see commercial boats unload...and seals eating the discards.
Regarding S. Fla...Isn't Los Olas a historic district? And S. Fla has to be famous for suburban sprawl...nothing like the build out that happened the last 15 years down there... Enjoy your stay and welcome, Steve

Just a few suggestions for each area;

Falmouth: Bike trail to Woods Hole and visit Wood's Hole Oceanographic Institute Lab tours, play with the fish etc.
and spend some time through some of the very Quaint downtown. -A good 1/2 or more day. Take cameras!

Possibly do some of the Mansions(The Breakers/Vanderbilts AMAZING) in Newport if driving to CT.

Conneticut: Nuc. Submarine tour at New London, Acquarium at Mystic and Coast Guard Academy(sp?)

Boston- Duck Tour (a must) Ex- Military amphibians(DUC's) guided tour of Boston ending with a ride into and on the Charles river! Old Ironsides- USS Constitution. North End for some Italian anything! Maybe a Red Sox game or at least vist Fenway Park and the (now infamous) Citgo sign. Take a stroll around Harvard Square in Cambridbridge and walk some of Harvard campus. Grab some sandwiches to go and get yourself over to the banks of Charles river and have an impromptu picnic!

Just a couple of ideas!

No worries,
We`ve been having fun in your absence.

Big Lew has good ideas.

Chillingsworth is an outstanding restaurant in Brewster. Mid Cape.

Lumiere in Newton is making Michael a star. CALL NOW!

The islands look just like the Cape, unless you are in a boat.

Duck boats are after my time, but look like fun. Oh, and Smithers, bring me that infernal Citgo sign.
