Cape Cod 2000

This year I mostly stayed around Cape Cod.  We were there between July 22nd to August 5th.  The weather was bad half of the time with lots of rain but was a comfortable temperature.  Below are some of the pictures I took.  Some pictures are blurry since the flash in my camera only works on objects within ten feet so I turned it off.  Also, I did not want to reduce photo size to save memory so I took away some photo quality.

The Trip to Massachusetts

We left on a red-eye flight on Friday, July 21 from Seattle -Tacoma Airport

Sun coming up over the horizon.

After a connection in Pittsburgh, we went to Providence's T.F. Green Airport.  Our plane to PVD was late because of a fuel gauge problem and I was stuck on the plane for almost two hours on the ground.  When we got there we missed our first Bonanza bus so we collected those airport carts from people and put them back to get a 25 cent refund.  We caught the second Bonanza bus and was on my way.


In Fall River by a bus stop is the Lizzy Borton House which is now a bed and breakfast.  Lizzy Borton killed her parents with an ax.

Then we went up to Bourne in Cape Cod to change busses then down Falmouth where our family was.

Our Day at the Weepeckets

When I got there, I went swimming in Quissett Harbor.  The next day, July 23rd, the Quissett Yacht Club was having a party down at the Weepeckets.  The Weepeckets is an island south of Woods Hole owned by the Forbes Family.

Quick Quissett Harbor Shots

When my family went to Costco on the 24th, I stayed and rowed around Quissett Harbor.  Here are some pictures that I took.

A Trip to Provincetown

Provincetown is at the end of the arm of the Cape.  It houses many "couples."  On our way up on July 25th, we went through Barnstable which was where my grandfather was born and stopped at the Marconi Station site where the first radio transmission was sent.


The house where my grandfather was born.


Close to the house, a road that goes down to a harbor.


This harbor which is used by the Barnstable Yacht Club has a weird tide.


The depth gauge of when or when not to dive.


A cool rock house.


At the site of the Marconi Station, the views of the arm of the Cape and the Atlantic Ocean.


The Lobster Pot serves the best (I mean the best you will ever have) seafood in the world.


This museum is closed because it is leaning
