Nantucket - also known as "ACK" (the airport code) is a very special place for our family. And pretty much anyone who's set foot on the island would probably agree.
Wikipedia writes:
Nantucket, a tiny, isolated island off Cape Cod, Massachusetts, is a summer destination with dune-backed beaches. It’s marked by its unpainted cedar-shingled buildings, many surrounded by manicured privets. The wharves and cobblestoned streets of the Town of Nantucket are lined with restaurants, high-end boutiques and steepled churches. The town’s Whaling Museum recounts the island’s role as a 19th-century whaling hub.
Really couldn't have said it better myself. Nantucket is so unique and special that it's beyond comparison. In the summer, the island is full of life - warm weather, sand beaches, and quaint shops. But arguably Nantucket is at it's best when it's just a little greyer outside.
We love ACK, and we hope you do too.
Much Love,
- The Penn family
