I took this from the Steamship Authority dock in Hyannis, Mass., while waiting for the ferry to take my sister and me over to Nantucket. I’ll be on island for 10 days, and will hopefully be posting some new pictures while I’m here for you! Enjoy!

On Friday I made the long and arduous trek from my apartment in West Falls Church to Nantucket for the weekend. The trip involved 2 metro lines, a regional train, a shuttle bus, an airplane, an overnight stay at a hotel in Providence, a car and a ferry. The trip was worth it though. Nantucket is probably my favorite place on the planet, and getting to see all the family and our friends was great. The weather was awesome too, cooler than anywhere on the mainland (and definitely cooler than here in D.C.). The weekend consisted of sitting on the beach, going to barbecues and watching fireworks. In all, an excellent way to spend my holiday weekend.

I was able to take some fireworks shots, I think they turned out pretty well, I hope you enjoy them.
