Plymouth Rocks!

This is the building built over the famous Plymouth Rock.
A replica of the Mayflower rests in the bay.

Flowers and the Jenney Grist Mill.


One of the headstones in the cemetery on the hill.

This is the Unitarian Universalist Church, the first parish in Plymouth, and started in 1620.

The Atlantic is cold enough to suck in your breath!


Plymouth rocks! Or should I say Plymouth Rock? Either way, this is a great place to visit. We did see the very famous boulder, a replica of the Mayflower, and explored around this quaint town. Things not to miss are the Jenney Grist meal, the Sparrow house (oldest wood frame home in Plymouth) and the cemetery. It was interesting to read the headstones from the 17th and 18th centuries.

After leaving Plymouth, we drove over to Cape Cod National Seashore, and Laurel was brave enough to put her feet into the Atlantic ocean, which was quite cold. We can truly say we have been coast to coast this year!
