Remember that the blog posts the most resent items first and it only shows a few days of posts. You have to click on "older post" at the bottom of the page to read the ones before this page. We have a number of pages on just this trip. 


We traveled to Plymouth. We did  see an early settler that just came off of the ship.

The Mayflower has been docked here for 55 years.

This Gothic structure covers Plymouth rock

This is the actual rock, it is old.

The town has many wonderful buildings.
 
 

We liked the boat on the cupola on a building

A statue commemorating the people that settled this area. There is an old man in there that was not there at the time.

This statue was commemorating the mother of the pilgrims.


The reason they settled here was because of a fresh water source. Later they ran mills and machinery with this water power.

Swans on the water source.

I think this boat docked a little close to the cars.

A view out in the harbor.

Two pilgrims off of the Mayflower.

The rear windows open on the May Flower.

The Mayflower was not that big to cross the Atlantic.


Another view of the harbor.

One of the many mansions on the waterfront.
 
 
 
 
We drove down to Scusset Park, next year we may want to camp here. There is a 7 mile bike trail along the cut between Cape Cod and the main land.
 
 
The current is swift and the sailboats in the next few pics were probably going 10 knots.
 
 
 
 
 
 
It was a good day, tomorrow we cross the Long Island Sound on a ferry.
