After Nantucket Martha’s Vineyard was a bit of a let down. If Nantucket is where rich people go to show off then Martha’s Vineyard is where they go for privacy. Which meant there was not much to do and not much going on. Add to that the fact we got there after Labor Day and it made for a pretty quiet stay. We stayed in Vineyard Haven which is known for having the Black Dog tavern which we thought was kind of cool. But we were always foiled at our attempts to go there usually arriving between lunch and dinner when they’d shut down.
However we still took the obligatory picture.
We wanted to get a better feel for the island so we did another bus tour. Martha’s Vineyard is pretty big and I think we drove around 60 miles and didn’t see all of the island! We saw a lot of pretty houses, lots of beginnings of driveways that rich people live down and nice views of the water. On the tour the fog rolled in making the scenery eerie and beautiful!
Cool houses downtown
More houses.
Someone rich and famous has a house down there.
Fog rolling in.
As you can imagine there are lighthouses on Martha’s Vineyard as well! We didn’t get to the lighthouse until the fog was in but still got some good shots.
