We’re down on Cape Cod for a long weekend. We own a week at a time-share condo in Brewster that usually coincides with mid-term school holidays; this year it also includes Easter. Surprisingly things are really quiet here: we drove down yesterday, and the traffic was light all the way. Today we visited “P’town” (Provincetown): we zoomed up Route 6 at the speed limit with hardly any other traffic in sight. When we got there at 11am it was still foggy, but it burned off within an hour. By the time we left late in the afternoon, the number of visitors was looking more respectable, and a drag queen diva with a karaoke machine was drawing a good crowd in the town centre.
Monday is the day of the Boston Marathon, which passes through Brookline; it’s a good day to be out of town. We plan to stay here until Tuesday morning and then head back quite early.
