Today was one of, if not my favorite, days. We spent our day exploring the mansions of Newport. Most of them were owned by the Vanderbilts and were amazing. The architecture and history were beyond fascinating. We then explored the little downtown shops; the girls had some lobster, and the boys ate at the Cluck House, which they really enjoyed!
After a slow-paced night, we got up right away and drove to Springfield, MA, where we stopped at the Armory to look at historical war weapons. Dad even found his grandpa’s gun. We quickly grabbed a bite to eat and drove to New Haven, CT. While there, we attended Peabody’s Museum of Natural History and explored Yale University. We ended our night eating at Modern Apizza (famous CT pizza). It was a so-so hit for our family.
