Pack a pumpkin pie for the road this Thanksgiving
Plymouth
Celebrate the first Thanksgiving, pilgrim-style, in Plymouth, Massachusetts, where Mayflower passengers famously disembarked back in 1620. After visiting their supposed landing site, at Plymouth Rock, pay your respects to the statue of native Wampanoag chief Massasoit, who signed an accord with the pilgrims in 1621; what few members remain of his tribe today can be found living across the water, on Martha’s Vineyard. These two sites aside, the area’s biggest draw at this time of year is Plimouth Plantation, a sizeable estate that recreates the 17th-century pilgrim village that once stood here, complete with timber houses, barn, and livestock, as well as a replica of the Mayflower itself. You’d be hard-pressed to find a more historic spot to spend the holiday.
