So after roaming the streets in Provincetown, Mass. I found myself surrounded by thousands of men without shirts, for a person who has never been to Provincetown there are things to know ahead of time...
Bring lots of T-shirts with cool logos or sayings as they are as sure to draw as much attention as being shirtless does, plus it offers people the opportunity to strike up a conversation if your t-shirt has a way of starting the dialogue!

This year Provincetown had taken on a different feeling over years past, and most of that was owing to the change in policy of the main T-dance attraction, the Boatslip, would sell a weekly access pass which might have saved you $10.00 overall in the week on the daily cover charge. This year, greed won them over & they were not offering the weekly pass plus,  they had higher entry prices and charged access fees on the day of the carnival ( a first in all my years of attending), for that,  I offer up a SHAME ON YOU to the Boatslip for what was clearly a money grab!
For my money I would prefer to attend the Wave Bar or the Pied after Tea where the music is great and there is no cover!

Bayside Betsy's was excellent for a first night dinner and each restaurant selection improved on the last, we dined at the Crown & Anchor, Napi's, The Mayflower & Provincetown Pizza, we avoided the standard Lobster Pot and discovered The Lunch Box and Blondies Burgers,  all well priced and excellent food and service.

After a night of partying everyone has to head to Spiritus at 1am for a slice of pizza, or a float or ice cream - and just watch as the evening antics unfold. If I could upload video here there would certainly be some laughs to be had.
