My entire summer boiled down to this: How do I
want to live my life when I am on my own, making my own decisions? I think I
found quite the plan. Without going into detail, let's just say it includes a
couple of weekends in Cape Cod. I took the Boston Fast Ferry to Provincetown,
Cape Cod and was picked up by good family friends. I was able to relax here,
walk on the beach and sit carefree by a pond. It was so peaceful and I never
wanted to leave. I had one of the coolest experiences of my life during the one
night I stayed in Cape Cod. It went from being a perfectly sunny day to an
intense thunderstorm within minutes. I have a new favorite weather now... when
it rains so hard that you have blurred vision from the buckets of water dumping from the
angry sky. While at first I was disappointed that there was not going to be a
sunset, I was pleasantly surprised when we drove to the harbor and saw one of
the most spectacular sunsets I have ever seen. The sky was painted with pink
and orange; the declining sun projected its rays onto the glistening water and
the docked boats swayed in the evening breeze. Just behind me was the raging
storm and in front of me was the most serene sight. It was an unforgettable end
to my travels!
