It's Winter Here in America's Hometown!

So much has happened since I last blogged.... The Thanksgiving Parade was a huge success largely due to the weather; it was perfect. Just enough chill in the air, so you know it's Thanksgiving time, yet not to bitterly cold. The bands were great, Tops In Blue were fantastic. Everyone enjoyed themselves. It's starting to quiet down now, some restaurants are closing for the season, the main attractions, i.e. Plimoth Plantation, Capt. John's Whale Watching and the Jenney Grist Mill have also closed for the season. But still open and open all year long is the Dead Of Night Ghost Tours, a hauntingly fun walking tour through graveyards and historic places in Plymouth. The stores are all abuzz with frantic Christmas shoppers. All kinds of holiday celebrations are going on, house tours, wine tastings, tree lightings, santa breakfasts, Christmas story readings... really too many to mention them all. It's like a Dickens card come to life. January will bring lots of birding groups and star gazing groups, see http://www.seeplymouth.com/ for more information. Also, at the Comfort Inn we will be having special packages, including a Romance Spa Package and a Shop, Play and Stay Package, for all of you who want to cash in on the after-holiday sales! I'll try to post more often.. have a great day and a wonderful holiday season.

Fall Happenings

Autumn officially began this week! With the coming of fall many events in our area are planned. One of the largest events this weekend (9/25 -9/27/09) is the 40th Annual Bourne Scallop Festival, www.bournescallopfest.com. This event has something for everyone with arts & crafts, great food and drink, live entertainment, and a midway! The Plimoth Plantation is hosting a GLBT day on 9/26/09, "Out at Plimoth Plantation". In nearby Carver at Edaville Railroad the Community Heroes Festival is happening 9/26 & 9/27. This festival honors our heroes, fire fighters, police, paramedics, the Red Cross and Habitat for Humanity. There will be an appearance by Spiderman and Wolverine for 10am - 5pm.

Remember the water is still warm, the beach is less crowded and one of the best kept secrets "Sandy's On The Beach" is still open for the freshest seafood and best sunsets in Plymouth.

The weekends at the hotel are busy, so we have very attractive rates for mid-week stays.

Don't forget to make you reservations early for the America's Hometown Parade weekend 11/20 -22/09!!!
