My partner & I have been invited to a friends vacation rental in Provincetown for a couple days. We’ll go up on a Wednesday in August and come back on a Friday. Should we:

1. Take the ferry from Salem into Boston, then catch the Ptown Ferry from there (this involves about 90 minutes of extra time at Long Wharf in Boston)

2. Uber to Long Wharf to catch the Ptown Ferry

3. Just drive because traffic won’t be that bad on a weekday

Obviously catching the ferries is more fun, but it’s not cheap. And I have chronic fatigue so while traffic can be draining (I won’t be driving), perhaps taking two boats is even more so.

Would appreciate any advice!
