I have written about Provincetown a few times, but can only find one of those times here. Anyway, my friend Faith and I, celebrated a day off of school on Friday with a trip to P-town. It takes close to an hour to get there. K and B both invited friends and Faith brought her son and daughter. (It was a FULL minivan!) Someday her son will appreciate the gift he was given to hang out with 7 girls, but lucky for Faith, I don't think it will be any time soon.
I had some brainstorm to do a scavenger hunt with the kids so they wouldn't be whining about the wind and that they were bored. To make it easy, I wrote the word, Provincetown, down the side of an index card, gave them a pen and put it in a big baggie. We split them up into 2 groups and told them to find (buy or take a picture) of something that begins with each of the letters. We let them go off for about an hour and a half and they had a blast! One group took all pictures and one group bought most of the things. Click on this picture to make it bigger and see some of the examples. I highly recommend this, they loved it!
Such a fun, beautiful day!
Happy Sunday!

I'm cold just looking at them. Glad you had fun!
Wonderful!!! I love that building on the pier, with the photos on it, that is just amazing to me. Little pink coat girl is adorable and so fashionable and LOVE your family shot! Very nice!
That was a cool idea, and a great travel game anytime. Love the pix from your day trip, especially to old building on the pier.
FABULOUS pictures! And I love your scavenger hunt. It doesn't take much encouragement for kids to have fun on a boring trip. Congrats!
On a side note - I had NO idea that Blogger started protecting our pictures from downloads! I scrolled through your pictures and liked the format, realized that you used the same format I do, then popped back over to my blog. HOLY COW! Clicked on one of my pictures and was able to scroll through them. It's still not impossible for someone to snag a picture, but much more difficult. I wonder how long it's been that way?
I love your scavenger hunt idea.
