Annual Trip to PTown, Part 2

No trip to Provincetown is complete with a stop at Shop Therapy.  But first we were on the hunt for some lunch.


This cracked us up.  What's more, they wanted $10 for him.

Every time I go to PTown I say I'm going to stop here before I leave. Every year I forget.  This year was no different.

We had lunch here at The Mayflower, which has been in PTown since the 1920s.  I remember being little and eating here.  I was terrified at the caricatures on the walls.  They truly scared me.  It wasn't until I was in my mid 20s that I would set foot inside this place to conquer my fear.  

They still creep me out.

I have always loved these.  All the restaurants on the Cape had them 'back in the day'. 

Thought this was cool too.  It's a real working tide clock.




Before going inside Shop Therapy, I had to detour down the alley next to it cause it's just the coolest exhibit of art.  The pictures I have posted here are the G or PG rated ones.  Others are not suitable for work, and can be found on my Facebook page.











Anyways, I'm glad I didn't get in trouble for taking pics inside.  I can't resist.  I mean since I can't possibly afford ALL of it, I need pictures so that I can at least look at all that cool stuff!!  Oh, as a side note, the upstairs is all adult stuff, so it's 18 and older only.

I just want to LIVE here.  Everything is so neat!  I got Mark a blue tie dye romper.

If I had the room to display this, I would have bought one.  It's so pretty!!!!

Now there's a dream catcher!



Wanted all, purchased none.

I tried to capture the spinning with so-so results. 

We are hoping to go back up in the fall when it's less crowded.

P-Town!

My stepdaughter was on vacation so we made the trek up to Provincetown to walk around and enjoy the sights, sounds and stores.  It wasn't super sunny but the humidity was off the charts, as it has been all summer.

Obligatory picture of Pilgrim Monument.  Did you know the Pilgrims first made landfall in this area of Cape Cod, before they landed & settled in Plymouth?  They were out of beer and needed to make some more.



Shop Therapy.....I could buy everything in here on the first floor.  I emphasize FIRST floor, as the second is porn, sex toys & novelties and fetish wear.




Literally could buy everything.


Town Hall


The shopping is amazing......but I was good.

It was wall to wall people and after I got home I found out that the annual Carnivale Celebration and parade was later in the week.

Such a sucker for archways.


This is my fave store....so much cool stuff on the cheap.  But it's also full of things that it makes walking around somewhat difficult with people in the aisles.  I got a few things but it was too hot and crowded to stay long.

Bumpah stickahs.


Half the time we went in stores just to take advantage of the air conditioning.

Just LOVE these door mats!
