I asked around and almost everyone on the island recommended I try the Lola Burger at Lola 41. Nantucket is filled with wonderful boutiques and family-owned restaurants. The centerpiece of the gallery is the skeleton of a 46-foot male sperm whale, which died on Siasconset beach on January 1, 1998. Although I am against this trade, it was an important part of the area’s history. The highlight of the museum is the Whale Hunt Gallery which explores all aspects of the demanding and dangerous trade of 18th century whaling. With limited time to explore the island, I wasted no time and headed straight to the Whaling Museum to view their Festival of Trees exhibition which transforms the museum into a festive winter wonderland for the entire month of December. Even in the winter, Nantucket is gorgeous. I decided to take an afternoon adventure to Nantucket on the high-speed ferry, which whisks you to the oasis in about an hour.
