Gay communities are the safest areas around. Provincetown is very clean and well taken care of. Nice restaurants, nice sunsets. You should stay for a sunset there. Anyway what's the worst that can happen? if anyone really gets angry at you the worst they will do is pull your hair. :biggrin:
Thanks for the backup on this one, my Dad and Father-in-Law are on opposite ends of the spectrum advising whether to visit Provincetown or not, this helps.
I also recommend the whale watch with the kids. Its a 3 hour round trip by boat (from Boston, less from Provincetown or Hyanis I am sure).. the whales get very close... I got wet from the water spraying from their blowhorn. They use the boat to trap fish between them and the boat so they can eat. Its very cool. Just dress warm it gets cold on the water.
