Places we visited in the Cape Cod
Cape Cod Canal
My daughter have a book ‘Cape canal’, I have been reading the book to her from past one year. Finally, visiting to the place took me a minute to actually realise we actually came to the place. The breath taking view of the canal water and walkway leading to the beach and the rock wall feels surreal. Its peak summer when you step outside it feels like your nearing the sun. Even then walking in the walkway at 3 pm in the afternoon made us feel something special the cool breeze and the amazing sight made us forget the heat.

It was too hot for us to walk in the 12 noon hot sun we took the electric car ride, the driver is friendly and explained us about each place. He indeed waited for us my when my child want to go Carousel. We had a wonderful time.
Town neck beach
We have to wait like around half hour to get parking slot, weekend beaches are packed with people if your looking for some lonely time on the beach its better to go on week days. Finally we reached the beach seeing the board walk. When the cool Atlantic waters touch your feet, I felt current shock sensation. The waters are so cold outside it hot and the waters are opposite its cold. We played in waters and started our Journey back home.
Boardwalk
Boardwalk where you walk on the wooden bridge surrounded by the marshland. If your lucky can occasionally see some wild life. Mornings and evenings are the best time to walk on the bridge. Weekends getting parking in the boardwalk is difficult,.your lucky you may get parking.
