Tips for Enjoying Provincetown
If you are planning a visit to Provincetown. Here are some of my words of wisdom.
* Just remember, there is no place like Provincetown. Not even Truro, 5 miles away can match the unique charm here.
* Be clear as you get off the ferry, you will see fairies of all kinds.
* We really are not concerned with how you do it in Boston, LA, New York, Miami, or for that matter any where else.
* Leave for your destination 15 minutes early and walk slowly. This Will make all the difference in how you learn to enjoy the town and its rare beauty.
* Greatest danger to life and limb are bicyclists going against traffic at higher speeds.
* People may not remember your name, but they will remember your dog's name.
* Service is good, food is plentiful and tasty, but remember this is a slower pace and so instead of frustration over the time service takes remember to just breathe.
* There is not a Starbucks, but there is a Wired Puppy and a Joe's coffee.
* You may come across the odd straight couple kissing, but don't be alarmed we are an accepting community.
* As you are on the ferry watching the beauty of downtown Boston escape from the horizon, start to relax and as monument appears start to think peacefully and smile.
* Most people in Provincetown don't care what you do for a living unless you write, draw, sculpt or work in town.
* Resistance is futile, if you are here more than a day or two, you will notice this strange feeling as you walk down Commercial Street. Don't be alarmed, it is a quiet peace inside that is contagious. You will find happy and content people, and if you stay long enough this may be you as well.
* Be forewarned, many people have come for a weekend and are still here years and years later. And no, they are not on a milk carton somewhere.
