Plynouth Apeil 23,2008

Today we got up and got an early start out of Boston for our trip to Plymouth and then to Cape Cod for our Anniversary. We first stopped at Plymouth rock which we were not able to see because they are renovating the building around it. Next we went and saw the replica of the Mayflower did not want to pay to get on so we just took pictures and left it at that. Next we wanted to see the Plymouth plantation I was a little uneasy because it was 24 dollars a person and was not really sure I wanted to pay it. But decided in the end we probably would not be back so sucked it up and went. They showed you a movie about the the plantation there is 4 major exhibits they include a Wampanoag Homesite,a 1627 English Village and a Crafts center and a state pier.The plantation is where men and women portray residents of the early settlement. They have actors really role playing how the english settlement really was in 1627. They had women in the houses cooking what the people would have eaten, they had men telling stories of how it was back then. They also had homes and garden sites you could walk through to see how they lived. In the Wampanoag homeside these people are not actors they are really indians. They were dressed in there heritage clothing and you were able to ask them questions and they would give you there opinion from a today's stand point.After the plantation we made our way to Provincetown which is on the very tip of Cape Cod. We checked into our Bed & Breakfast called the Crowne Pointe. It was very nice. We went to dinner and I had a chicken sandwich and mark had a hamburger. After we made it back to the B&B we watched a movie and enjoyed our time together.
