Day Six: We slept in a little later today before heading off to the
home of Cape Cod Potato Chips in Hyannis for a factory tour and some sampling
(kind of early for jalapeño potato chips but we are troopers!). Next, we
drove up the Cape with a stop at the Sand Pond Visitor Center of the Cape Cod
National Seashore. We then stopped at the Cape Cod Lighthouse where it was
a little windy along the coast. We finished our drive up the Cape Cod
Coast with a stop at the National Park's visitor center in Provinceton.
Headed back down the coast and stopped in New Bedford (made famous by Herman
Melville's Moby Dick novel) for a visit to the Whaling National Historic
Park and the Seamen's Bethel or the Whaleman's Chapel (Chapter 22 of Moby
Dick). We finished our day with a drive into Newport, Rhode Island
where we checked into the Yankee Peddler Inn where we are staying in the
Carriage House.
