. . . to an old fashioned "soda-fountain" for an ice cream float, vanilla ice cream in a coke . . . what a joy!
Walking the cobblestone streets and then in and out of the shops . . . brought Charlie
Nantucket's harbor is jammed with boats at moorings and alongside all its piers.
The ESSEX. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essex_(whaleship)
A trip to Nantucket was a must for Charlie. He is a seafarer . . . and Nantucket means "land far at sea." By the mid-1700's and on into the 1800's Nantucket was pre-eminent in the American whaling industry. This distinction lasted until recovery of petroleum in the 19th century. Charlie has recently read THE ESSEX . . . it is recommended as a must to read!
