A Cross Country Odyssey - 2003
Plymouth, Massachusetts
There aren't many RV parks near Boston so from Salisbury to the north we next went to Plymouth to the south. From there we toured the historic sites in and around Plymouth, ate more lobster, went on a whale watch cruise and spent some time relaxing on a sandy beach. Our attempt to go out to Cape Cod was thwarted by extremely heavy traffic on the Saturday morning we attempted it. After one hour on the road to move from our access interchange to the very next exit we decided to turn around and spend out time more productively. A wise choice it turns out.
 The Mayflower II. An exact replica of the origianl Mayflower. This ship was built in the 1950s and saild from England to Plymouth, MA. |
 On board the Mayflower we could experience the conditions the pilgrims endured in 1620 |

 You can see Tsukiko and Yoshiko standing in line waiting to board the boat to go out and look for whales |
 The Tails of the Sea is our whale watching boat. The cruise lasted about 3-1/2 hours |
 We saw a lot of whales. Here is the tail of one as it dives down in the water. |
