Wednesday, October 5th. We awoke to another sunny morning. It was windy last night, but no rain. Our campsite is amongst these large scrub oak trees and you couldn't help but wonder if limb come down in the wind...But they didn't. After breakfast we began our tour of Cape Cod. The main road goes right up the spine of the cape and frankly we couldn't tell if we were on a backroad in Michigan, or Vermont or Maine. But it's what's eminating off that spine road that's interesting. There are many beautiful beaches, light houses and little towns. I'm sure the towns are
packed in the summer. But now that schools back in the tourist population is lighter and with lots of europeans. Even the Ben & Jerry's is closing for the season. The main town is Provincetown at the very northern tip of the cape. It has a historic, Key West feel to it. Very artsy, lots of shops, galleries, small restaurants and B &B's. P-Town, as they call it is the site where the Pilgrims first touched foot on north american soil.

| Enjoying the National Seashore |
Cape Code hosts a National Seashore designation. And the beaches are pretty. But aren't any nicer than Lake Michigan beaches...and those are fresh water. All in all, Cape Cod was very nice, but it's not on our list of places to return to.
