Today we rode 115 miles from Seekonk to Provincetown on Cape Cod, which is famous for the landing place of the Pilgrims in 1620. Although the day started bright by the time we reached Cape Cod is was raining and down to 8C (44F). At the tip of the peninsula it is just a mile wide between the Bay and the Atlantic.  Provincetown is small with a very narrow one way street running through it. There were quite a few tourists today when it was very bleak so we cannot imagine what it must be like in the summer.
 
 
The monument to the Pilgrims which stands at 252ft. It is the tallest all-granite structure in the United States.

 
As we are only a couple of weeks away from Halloween we have been seeing all sorts of things outside peoples houses but today we had to stop and photograph the above/below house as we haven't seen anything quite so elaborate.
