Day 4; boat drinks!

September 27, 2021

(Actually, just a ride on the Provincetown fast ferry)

The day began early with quite a few swears, navigating the bikes down three levels of steep winding stairs. Facing Monday morning drivers, we remained cycle touring survivors. Finding an Au Bon Pain to get a egg bacon cheese something, we encountered a security guard who told us “no bikes” and kicked us out of the building.

To eat in this building we were not qualified so we bought the breakfast and ate outside

We caught the ferry at 8 o’clock at the Boston seaport dock. As soon as they yelled, “Anchors aweigh!” It was a 90 minute trip over the bay. We headed out of town rather quick and picked some food for a beach picnic.

I got some chips with my order to go, and Cape Cod chips seemed most apropos

It was 5 miles or maybe more to ride to the Cape Cod National Seashore

Just goes to show the dunes ebb and flow

This quaint P-town square in the middle of nowhere

We checked into our room at 1:00 and then walked down to the center of the very artistic Provincetown. Many tourists were about and crowding the streets, having afternoon coffee and snacking on sweets. Nearing mid-afternoon they started to scurry so they could catch the late afternoon ferry.

Sitting on the sea wall is part of this gull’s protocol

The view from our room may not be sweet, but the price was right at $129 complete

Today's ride: 12 miles (19 km)
Total: 153 miles (246 km)
