Village Landing Marketplace - shops feature gifts, nautical items, local hand crafts, souvenirs and New England specialty food items. I found an excellent restaurant for breakfast - 2 slices bacon, 2 eggs, toast, homefries for $2.50.

Plymouth National Wax Museum on Cole's Hill, overlooking Plymouth Rock. More than 180 life-size figures in 26 scenes tell the Pilgrim story (508) 746-6468.	Above is a stone depicting a National Day of Mourning by the Native Americans on "Thanksgiving."
	To the left is the statute of Massasoit who saved the lives of the remaining Pilgrims on their first winter in the New World after about half had perished.

	Pilgrim Mother Statute given by the Daughters of the American Revolution.

	The cyclists in the photo to the left were waiting for the Provincetown Express for the Cape Cod portion of their bike tour. They started from Montague Point, New York by ferry to New London, CT, and had biked from that point. They were going to cycle Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard and Block Island before biking back to New York. This was their first biking tour and they were having a great time!
	America's oldest continuously operating museum, Pilgrim Hall (photo to left) - see the actual possessions of the Pilgrims.

	First Parish Church (1899). Town Bell, cast by Paul Revere, was rung by the sexton six times a day to mark the time in the old New England manner.

Burial Hill - many of the Pilgrims are buried here.	Site of John Alden's home.

	Above three photos are of the 1749 Court House, oldest wooden courthouse in America, which has served as the County Court, Registry of Deeds and Town House - now a museum of early Plymouth.
	1640 Sparrow House, Plymouth's oldest home.
Jenney Grist Mill, a recreation of America's first mill featuring a working waterwheel for grinding corn meal.	Post Office Square - both a post office and various specialty shops.
	House on corner is the M.T. Coffin's Ghost Theatre, offered by Godey's. You'll enjoy masterful storytelling of ghostly events - (508) 830-1885
	One of the more popular restaurants in Plymouth, currently featuring Mexican food. It's a converted fire house.
	This little guy is waiting for his/her owners to get back from their shopping expedition.
	One of the advantages to getting up and on the road early - ocean front parking. On this particular trip I brought my bike with me and cycled around town during the morning. I wanted to do a whale watch trip in the afternoon, so just loaded my bike back on my rear bike rack, locked it, had a quick lunch in my camper, and headed for the whale watch boat just around the corner!
