The Tales of the Traveling Tote is a series of adventures that share where our Mackenzie Childs tote bags have taken us. Four times a year a group of bloggers each write a connected post about the places we have been. We have built incredible friendships through our blogs and we hope you enjoy our tales as much as we do!

August 2019
August was a fun month for me. I spent a week on Cape Cod and in Plymouth, MA
My 2 college friends and I had lunch at the East Bay Grille, overlooking Plymouth Harbor:
This "lobsta" was outside 1629 Winery in Plymouth:

We enjoyed lunch at Baxter's, overlooking Lewis Bay :
and the Lewis Bay Lighthouse in Hyannis....and "Miss Kenzie" was spying on Squaw Island in Hyannisport - you can see it in the distance:
One night we went to a fun dance party on Craigville Beach:
Miss Kenzie needed a rest at the Chamber Welcome Center, where my BFF is the Director! There is a directory so you can visit all of the hand painted Adirondack chairs, which will soon be auctioned off as a fundraiser:
Later in the week Miss Kenzie spied another chair at the bank:
We enjoyed the Housewives show with Margaret Joseph, Sonja Morgan and Teresa Guidice at Barnstable Performing Arts Center:
We had lots of fun at a "Bloody Mary and Bocce" Brunch in Sandwich:
We walked the path to the Cape Cod Canal and Scusset Beach at sunset:
I met Elin Hinderbrand in Hyannis and she signed my Summer of '69 book....This was my favorite of all of her books!
We swam in the pool - no sharks in there!!
We spent our last night at the Wequassett Inn on Pleasant Bay in Harwich:
We dined on a delicious food buffet on the patio:
After a wonderful week, it was time to return to NY and say goodbye to the sea and the prettiest flowers....
The next week John and I celebrated our 39th wedding anniversary in the Thousand Island Region, US and Canada (You can read about it here)
