Last weekend, after spending a delightful day in Newport with #1 and Adorable Jonathon, we ventured out to Provincetown the next day. We wanted to pack as much New England charm into the weekend as we could for our Texas visitors.
We took a ferry from Plymouth to P-Town, as the locals call it. We were blessed with another beautiful day.
Photobomb Mom!
The boat ride was about an hour and a half.
We were docked next to a reproduction of the Mayflower.
Arriving into the dock in P-town.
Happy couple plus boring guy checking his email.
To classify P-town as colorful is an understatement.
This guy was ogling me from afar. I am a sucker for a guy who wears a crab hat.
He was a little on the quiet side.
Pepe's Wharf was recommended to us for lunch and it did not disappoint. Everything from the host who was a dead ringer for Andy Warhol to the beachfront patio were spectacular.
I've eaten more lobster and ridden in more boats this summer than I have in my whole entire life.
P-town has plenty of art galleries.
Love all the well-manicured beach cottages.
These people must be TCU fans.
This store had beautiful home accessories.
I just wanted to sit on a bench and people watch.
What a pretty inn with the gorgeous red geraniums.
Before we got on the boat to come back to Plymouth, the crew warned us that rough seas were ahead. The people that were getting off the boat had just gone whale watching and quite a few got seasick.
We didn't get sick - just soaked from the waves. Not quite as bad as the lady over my left shoulder,though.

The next day we took Adorable Jonathon and #1 to the airport. I don't want to tell tales out of school, but a certain someone got his first speeding ticket of his whole life. Welcome to the club, Mister!

Haven't been to P-town since about age 11...40 years ago...a few things may have changed since my last visit...sorry to hear the Mister may now have a record...looks like you had a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures and love your narration! Lunch looks delicious!!
ReplyDeleteMy best gal pal and I took a trip to cape cod exactly one yr ago this week....we stayed in chatham and drove one day to P-town, stopping at every lighthouse along the way. Stayed in an awesome hotel for the night and had lovely dinner at Red something restaurant. DELIGHTFUL! We had lunch right where you did and walked all the places in your post. Such a fun trip and thanks for letting me re-live it thru this post!

ReplyDeleteI think our friend Sandy at "You may be wandering" has some fierce competition. Funny how a boat ride can transport one to another sort of planet. What a fun Summer you are having. Sorry you have been having too much lobster. Who ever heard of that?
