On Friday we traveled to Gloucester, Massachusetts. This is fishing village where the Perfect Storm was filmed. It is working, fishing community - they don't really try to capitalize on the movie. We didn't do New Hampshire justice - we just drove along the coast and New Hampshire doesn't have much coast. Yesterday went to Boston. We were smart tourists and took the ferry from Salem to Boston. In Boston, we walked the Freedom Trail and took the trolley. It worked out fine and we didn't have to do any city driving. We stayed in Gloucester 2 nights. Today we planned to go the Witch Museum and the Maritime National Historic Landmark in Salem. Salem was absolutely packed. Guess October is a great time for a city that capitalizes on the witch theme. The line was down the street to get in the Witch Museum and we couldn't find any where to park for the Maritime. So we ditched Salem and traveled to Plymouth via the Boston Grand Prix Route, as Eldon calls it. It was time to do mega laundry and clean house (boy is that easy!) We have to include pictures of our campsite - this family friendly campground is really in to Halloween. These pictures show the campsite next to us. Tomorrow is Plymouth Rock and Cape Cod. Comments from Eldon: Gloucester was exactly what I expected - a very cool old fishing port. I saw many boats similar to the Andrea Gail and the Hannah Boden. These were the boats in Perfect Storm and also went to the Crows Nest which was the sailors bar in the Perfect Storm. Since I'm a fan of the book and the movie, this made my day. Boston was interesting. Paul Revere's home is the only remaining wood house in historic Boston.Comments from Larry: Cindy & Eldon promised me a wooded campsite; they failed to mention it was haunted. This campground is spooky! Tomorrow I see Plymouth Rock where the first cat landed in America (so Eldon says).

Looks like we can't do pictures tonight - maybe tomorrow.
