The Alpaca Follows the Clintons to Martha's Vineyard


A trip to Martha's Vineyard (http://www.mvy.com/) could only mean that Traveling Alpaca had an opportunity to do what Bill and Hillary Clinton did when they were on the island: relax, take a leisurely tour, take in the beautiful scenery (including the clay cliffs and famous lighthouses, above) and have a scoop of the famous Mad Martha's ice cream (http://www.usatoday.com/travel/destinations/family/2003-10-13-ice-cream_x.htm). Traveling Alpaca particularly enjoyed the vibrant architecture of the island's famed Gingerbread Houses. The trolley tour of Martha's Vineyard was particularly fun for the Traveling Alpaca, as he also had glimpses of the Kennedy compound, Chappaquiddick, David Letterman's house and the craphole Martha Stewart bought (really, the woman has no taste).
