Spending another day in Provincetown. It is an interesting place to say the least. Luckily I was prepared before arriving here so no surprises. My new friend Rhonda told me that "Ptown" is the second largest gay community in America. One thing that really stands out is that there are no children here. The Main Street puts me in mind of Burbon Street in New Orleans, without the bars. A lot of amazing shops, some not family appropriate. The sites were enjoyable, but must say the town is sadly lacking in friendliness and hospitality. After the great treatment we've had in our other stops, this one has been disappointing.
Our plan was to move to an anchorage this am, but the launch driver mentioned a swim event taking place crossing right in front of our boat so advised "leave now or wait for the end of the race". We waited and thoroughly enjoyed the 400 plus swimmers go by our boat in the Swim for Life ( 1 1/2 mile) race. There must have been about 50 kayakers in the water as support boats ( keeping an eye on the swimmers and making sure no boats entered the swim lane). I'll try to post a picture, but still having trouble getting them onto this blog.
Tomorrow it's of the the Cape Cod Canal!
