Provincetown

I went to Ptown to go whale watching for my birthday. We stayed at Dune’s Edge Campground which was really nice and only about 15 – 20 minutes walk to city center. Went Whale watching with Dolphin Fleet, went to Pilgrams Monument (Provincetown was the first stop for the Mayflower before continuing on to Plymouth), walked around the cemetary, did the shops, walked along the beach and in the water – but had not allowed enough time to make it to the light house. There was not enough time to do everything that could be done, and I’d really like to walk all they way out to the tip of the cape so I do expect to go back. It was a wonderful adventure.

For excellent Omeletes go to Governor Bradford and the Post Office Cafe. For dinner – absolutely try the Lobster Pot.

The sun, beach, places to eat and shop as well as a great place to party are reasons to visit. Along with a small town charm its an incredible place to just run to.

I have been told to go in the “off season” (supposedly it is completely different) but I have only been there during Summer. The following is my Provincetown summer experience.

P-Town! A Mecca for us gay folk! Provincetown feels like a celebration…not just a “pride” celebration…but a celebration of life! It is so full of positive and welcoming energy! You can’t help but smile and have the time of your life! The town is busy but rather calm by day and parties overflow into the streets by night.

Provincetown is an overall stunning place which literally lies right on the water’s edge. (Even if you visit in the summer…you are going to want to bring a light jacket.) Full of wonderful boutiques and independent shops, great food, great drag shows and great people! P-Town is full of love and optimism! Whether you are gay, lesbian, transgendered, questioning or straight…it is definitely a unique and amazing town! A must see.

Oh Provincetown, I’ve known you since I was very small. You are probably mainly responsible for my ability to relate and feel comfortable around gay people. For that alone, Provincetown, you are a very special place… but you are also beautiful, and have the best salt water taffy, portugese bakery, quaint local library, huge stone tower and graveyard, and drag queens of any place I know.
