**************************************************

Vietimme kivan, kiireisen viikon Nantucketin saarella, tällä kertaa ystäviemme kanssa. Neljä pariskuntaa, eli yhteensä viisitoista henkeä, niistä lapsia seitsemän. Teimme rantareissuja, paljon kävelyitä keskustaan, pyöräilyreissuja, kalastusta, ravustusta, päiväunia, yhdessä kokkaamista ja hengailua. Yllättävän rentouttavaa, todella hauskaa, ja toivottavasti ensi vuonna saadaan uusia samalla porukalla!
