After dinner we went to Buzzards Bay Park
After dinner, we went to Buzzards Bay Park. This park sits at the corner of the bay where the Cape Cod Canal begins. Many people bring their chairs and sit near the canal to watch watercraft pass and wait for the train bridge to operate. The vertical lift train bridge is an engineering marvel. It spans over 500 feet and lowers in about 2.5 minutes, allowing trains to pass safely over the 480 foot expanse of water below. The train bridge and the canal are managed by the Corps of Engineers.
