Greg & Camille Go Bike

Somehow we decided that it'd be best to ride straight from Providence to Cape Cod. So we scarfed down donuts, a big pot of oatmeal, and coffee before the 110-mile ride. Although the sun was beating, we were feeling in great shape. On the way, an attractive stand at Dartmouth Orchards lured us to some fresh peaches (we ate three each) and a jar of peach butter to take home. Just as we were packing up to get back on the road, the owner Brian approached us. He was excited about our trip and made certain that we didn't leave without some apples and frozen water.

We took a longer break at the New Bedford Whaling Museum which had some amazing exhibits. It was really neat to see how much the Azores community was involved in the history of the city. Unfortunately, we had to cut our visit shorter than we'd have liked to continue our journey east before sundown. Brian's apples came to the rescue as we approached the Cape, feeling hungrier with every mile. We finally reached Harwich, MA just after dark, grateful for a wonderful meal made by Greg's mom.
