JFK Summer Fun Museum and Barefoot Statue
Hyannis, Massachusetts
Lots of photos, and a video narrated by newscaster Walter Cronkite, open a metaphorical beach bungalow window on the world of JFK at his favorite vacation spot. The actual Kennedy compound is only a few blocks away, but visitors can't get near it so the town decided to open this museum as a kind of consolation. In front of the museum stands a life-size bronze JFK, wearing rolled-up khakis, walking barefoot in some strategically placed sand.
Inside the museum is a model of the statue as it was originally conceived in 2000: JFK strolling side-by-side with an adult John-John. The Kennedys liked the idea but locals rejected it, so JFK walks alone.
