Whales CTY Summer Session 1 Day 6 (July 4th!)

We began the 4th of July by visiting the Cape Cod Canal. There we saw a Russian sailing ship that is the biggest tall ship in the world. Going through the canal was beautiful. It was so serene passing by the fishermen off the shore and seeing obvious signs of civilization after so much time at sea. Upon entering the Provincetown Harbor, we unexpectedly ran into a familiar ship, named the Harvey Gamage. The ship carried a group of teens who share the same interests as we do and are travelling upon a similar journey that we will, although their ship was bigger than the Lady Maryland. We were invited to board their ship and we sang songs, toured the vessel, and watched an incredible fireworks show while aboard the Harvey Gamage. It was an amazing time, and there are still more to come!
