Commercial Street runs about 5 km and almost parallel to the coastline of Provincetown. Both sides of the small one lane street are lined with many art galleries, shops, museums and restaurants. We didn\u2019t step into too many of these establishments though, being contended just to walk for most of the stretch and soaking in the atmosphere.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a small selection of the hundreds of pictures I took while walking along Provincetown. Most of these below were taken using the E-PL1. Captioned where appropriate or when I can remember.:)<\/p>\n

Provincetown also has a thriving artist colony, and many of them feature their works in small galleries along the street.<\/p>\n

I think the Spank the Monkey shop was selling exotic jewellery. Another shop selling the same type of wares, but with a more ‘traditional’ storefront.:)<\/p>\n

The Provincetown Library. They\u2019ve got a special reading room that says \u201cTechnology-Free Zone\u201d. No computers, no notebooks, no PDAs, no MP3 players. Heck \u2013 I don\u2019t think you\u2019re allowed to even fiddle with your mobile phone.:)<\/p>\n
