We are still enjoying the Cape Cod area. Have seen some of the obvious must see attractions - Kennedy Memorial, Plymouth Rock, The Mayflower. Went to Provincetown at the tip of the Cape. Waded in the Atlantic and Cape Cod Bay - its cool but not "ankle freezing". Have also seen numerous great lighthouses.
The beaches are many and beautiful. They are very pristine - just light beige sand - not much in the way of logs, kelp, etc.
There are THOUSANDS of cottages, bed & breakfasts, motels and hotels in the whole cape area. It must be VERY crowded in the summer. It is not bad now, but many businesses and about half the restaurants close after Sept. They are boarding up many places preparing for storms.
The whole area is very confusing to find your way with narrow 2 lane roads that meander everywhere, all look alike, and are not marked well. It has been a challenge to Bob who is usually very good at finding his way around! It also does not help that the sun does not set over the ocean here - thats just wrong! The same name for towns is used repeatedly . Our motorhome park is in South Dennis. Well, there is a region (like a small county) called Dennis. Within Dennis there are the towns of Dennis, South Dennis, East Dennis and Dennis Port.
Yes, we have had some wonderful lobster, and seafood chowders!
