When Bob’s son Matt told us he was getting married in August, we started looking for a good place on the east coast to store our RV and to fly back to Seattle from. I have some good friends, Kevin and Ginger, that live in Cape Cod and Bob and I were excited to spend some time there. So we booked our flight from Boston and found a great RV shop to store our 5th wheel while we were away.
As soon as we got to Cape Cod, we put “Harriet” into storage and went to stay with my friends. It felt strange to be out of our little rolling home and we were a bit anxious about what it would be like to be in Olympia. All of that dropped away though, and we had a great time on the Cape.
Cape Cod in August is a very busy place. It took us 3 hours to drive the 60 miles to Provincetown, but it was worth it. We arrived in time to see the Carnival Parade. The theme was Jungle Fantasy and there couldn’t have been any leopard print material left in 100 miles. So many thongs and loincloths!! Provincetown reminded us of Key West and we had a great time.
We also went whale watching at Stellwagen Bank. It was a great afternoon with at least 10 humpbacks and 2 minke whales. I’ve spent a lot of time with humpbacks, but always in the calving areas where they fast. It was wonderful to see them feeding and to observe them blowing bubble nets.
Bob and I had a wonderful time in Cape Cod – great hospitality and time with my friends, bike riding, wonderful dinners out and at home, and fantastic weather. We may have to stop back here later in the fall.
