The Chow/Mansfield family of 3 from Los Angeles (two adults and a teenage girl, age 14) traveled across the country to Massachusetts last month for a trip to Cape Cod and Boston. The family flew into the Boston airport, rented a car, and drove to the Red Jacket Beach Resort in South Yarmouth on Cape Cod for a three-night stay. The property was a little too moderate for their taste, but they did appreciate its location for exploring and were able to get a room with two large beds. They had a fun time visiting Hyannis Port, Sandwich, and Provincetown which they liked the best. Lobster rolls, clam chowder, and homemade ice cream made the food line-up and the daughter especially loved the stuffed quahogs. They then drove to Boston and dropped their rental car. The Eliot Hotel, located right on Newbury Street in the Back Bay, was home for the next three nights. Mom described the hotel as “nicely decorated, spacious, updated, glamorous and had the wow factor that dad needs to be happy!”. The family was happy to stretch out in a one-bedroom suite.  They packed in a visit to Harvard, took a harbor cruise, the Nighttime Ghost and Cemetery Tour, a Black Heritage Walking Tour, had Boston Cream Pie at the Parker House Hotel, had dinner at the Union Oyster House, toured the Black History Museum, and more. They also had fun walking, shopping, and eating along Newbury Street and so much more. Overall, the family described the trip as a blast. Not as relaxing as planned with so much to see, do, and explore…they needed a vacation after their vacation!
