Things to Do in Your Long Subaru - Cape Cod in the Winter
Yes, Cape Cod in the winter is a cozy and off-beat
getaway. Bundle up and stroll down an empty beach, where you'll be soothed by
the rhythmic crash of waves. Relish the unique sound of frozen ice and sand crackling as you gaze at the crystallized white froth underfoot. Follow this with a warming drink or glass of
wine in front of a crackling fire. What could be more relaxing? May we suggest
staying at one of the most romantic inns in the country.
With luxurious amenities and services, Captain's House Inn has won many
awards and accolades, including the coveted AAA
four-diamond award. Your gourmet breakfast features scrumptious fresh muffins or coffee cakes, entrée selection, and a variety of buffet items. What better way to fortify yourself before your day's activities. This distinctive sea captain's estate on two acres in
Chatham, Massachusetts is the perfect choice for a romantic getaway or a
peaceful retreat from the workaday world. View Winter

What other things are there to do in the winter? Why not learn to make jam at the Green Briar Nature Center and Jam Kitchen (6 Discovery Hill Road, East Sandwich; 508-888-6870; www.thorntonburgess.org), run by the Thornton W. Burgess Society. They offer both adult and family classes that will have you jamming in no time with 4 jars of your 'homemade' results to take home with you.
While you won't miss the crowds and traffic that cause congestion and frustration, prepare for the slower pace by planning ahead. Many of the Cape's best restaurants and galleries do remain open, however they will alter their schedule according to the needs of the season. The Impudent Oyster, Chatham's 'place to eat', for example is closed on Tuesdays and Wednesday but open for lunch and dinner the rest of the week.
Fun Facts...
Thornton Waldo Burgess, naturalist, conservationist and Sandwich native, loved the beauty of nature and its living creature so much that he wrote about them for 50 years. By the time he retired, he had written more than 170 books and 15,000 stories for daily columns in newspapers.
The town of Wellfleet, whose name is disputed (some argue that it comes from "Whale Fleet," while some say it comes from a brand of oyster popular in England), is where Guglielmo Marconi built America's first transatlantic radio transmitter station with the first radio telegraph transmission from America to England sent on January 18, 1903
"Yarmouth Etched in Time" gives you the opportunity to have your very own Gray's Beach Boardwalk plank. Your plank can be engraved with up to 25 characters and placed for all to see.
