Well we stayed two days on Nantucket. Monday, the first day, it rained the entire day so we decided to go to the Whale Museum and to then out to lunch. For dinner Rick and Lindsay ran out and picked up some pizza and brought it back to the boat. Tuesday, we did an 18 mile bicycle tour of Nantucket. We biked out to the Sankaty Lighthouse featured in the photo above. It was a beautiful day about 70 degrees and pure blue skies! It was a very nice way to end our stay on Nantucket. Wednesday, we got up bright and early and started our trek to Provincetown. We left at 6:30 am from Nantucket. We motored the entire way with no sail up as the winds were only about 5 knots on our nose. With calm winds come and calm waves the Ocean was like glass and the clear skies made the visibility perfect. We saw many, many seals and a couple of whales. (One other note – on the sail from North Carolina to Nantucket – Rick and Lindsay saw Whales and two Sharks!)
We arrived in Ptown at about 4 pm and fueled up. We then put the boat on its mooring slip for the summer and headed to town to get dinner and see Lindsay off. She was headed to Boston on the ferry to spend some time with her mom prior to starting her summer job at Flyers. Rick and I then headed to the Monkey Bar to say hi to our friends there and then headed home for an early evening.
Yesterday, Rick and cleaned the boat and headed to Boston ourselves to avoid being on the boat during the Tropical Storm Andrea aftermath that is supposed to hit the Cape this weekend.
