Mini-Island Getaway…

September 2, 2010

One of the perks of living in Greenwich is the Town has been gifted 2 little islands that are served by the town ferry.

So for $2 per adult (with our resident beach card), we can board the ferry and be whisked to a little island getaway.

I’m sorry to say that we don’t take advantage nearly enough! But this past Saturday we picked up our “High School Specials” (these chicken nuggets and potato cones that are served with seasoning in an insulated lunch bag = perfection) and took them out to the island.

And they were still hot.

This is among my boys favorite meals in the world. (Mine too)

Then we hit the playground there…

Then the beach…

The tide was coming in so we had to work f-a-s-t.

Ahhh summer.

The boat ride to and from is also perfect for house-hunting. (Again, I don’t live anywhere near this neighborhood, but it’s nice to look.)

And this is what you get in the car ride home after all that fun…

A sleeper!
