Plymouth Rock and the Mayflower II

This was a one and done for us. At the end of the day, Plymouth Rock is... a rock. We went aboard the Mayflower Il, where 102 passengers and their livestock crowded in the tween deck. One woman even gave birth during the voyage; imagine the lack of privacy!

Mayflower II is a full-scale reproduction made from descriptions of the Mayflower in primary sources and period shipbuilding manuals. So, their best guess.
The replica was built 65 years ago and was gift from England to the U.S.
There it is, Plymouth Rock.
There are a couple of million dollar homes perched on the long sandy spit across Plymouth Harbor. It's a bumpy gravel road in, and you're on generators, well water, septic. Bonus: no through traffic. Downside: one big wave and your million dollar home is very wet.
