We took an hour and a half drive to Provincetown at the end of the cape. There we discovered bus loads of tourists and shops our friend Harold refers to as “JJ,” Junky Joe’s. We remembered the town from a previous trip as a great art center but it is now overrun with T-shirt shops and pricey restaurants.
We did spend a brief time visiting Nauset and Three Sisters Lighthouses. The wind was beginning to blow and we admired the hearty sunlovers who remained to bask on the beach. A friend recommended a book written by a naturist who lived for a year in this area. It is always special to share a place through someone else’s eyes.
Unfortunately, the drive home took over three hours. Between road improvement and two lane roads, driving is awful for visitors and must be a nightmare for the locals. Fortunately, we had an bit easier drive and a great time on our days in both Sandwich and Sagamore, so the cape will still be well remembered. Even our dud days have pretty views.
