Bye-Bye Brooklyn: 6 End of Summer Getaways
Weekend Trip (by plane):
Martha’s Vineyard
This island off the coast of Cape Cod might have an ultra-elite vibe to it, what with Presidents past and future summering on its shores, but it’s also possible now to get cheap, direct flights on Jet Blue from JFK, so anyone can go!
Yay! Democracy!
Anyway, once in Martha’s Vineyard, you’ve got options. You can stay at a nice hotel, like Lambert’s Cove Inn, that features my ABSOLUTE favorite thing, a saltwater pool. Why is it my absolute favorite thing? Because it combines the stagnancy of a still body of water with the stinging factor of sea water. Yes!
Or you could go camping in the Martha’s Vineyard Family Campgrounds. So that could be fun?
Anyway, also eat a lot of lobster rolls, because that’s smart. And fried clams. Also smart.
Getting there: Jet Blue!
