Day 8- Salem, MA

Since our flight didn't leave until later in
the evening, we made one last sightseeing
stop in Salem, MA. We visited a
cemetery that was started in the 1600s and
featured the grave of a Mayflower passenger.
So neat to see graves that old!







Day 7- Nubble Lighthouse, Maine

We made it to the coast of Maine to visit the Nubble
Lighthouse and put our feet in the Atlantic Ocean. The coast
of Maine was absolutely breathtaking. The kids enjoyed
collecting some shells and rocks to bring home.














Day 7- New Hampshire

We left Vermont and traveled through
New Hampshire. We stopped at Mount
Sunapee to ride the chair lift but it was not
running. The owners let us play miniature
golf for free so it wasn't a waste trip.
 


Day 6- The Yurt

We ended our day in Vermont with a stay
in a Yurt. This was the highlight of the trip
for me. The yurt had amazing mountain veiws
and a trail leading to a gorgeous brook that you
could hear from the yurt all night long. The kids
were super excited to stay the night!











Day 6- Teddy Bears and Ice Cream

In Vermont we visited the Vermont Teddy
Bear Factory and the Ben and Jerry Ice
Cream Factory. We took the tour at both
places! Each kid stuffed a Vermont teddy
bear as well. Avery will tell you that this was
her favorite part about the trip.








Day 6- Vermont

We said goodbye to Boston and headed
to Vermont. The weather in Vermont was
so nice at 60 degrees! Which when it is
90 back home that was really nice! We stopped
for lunch in Montpelier at the Skinny Pancake
which served delicious crepes.

Day 5- Union Oyster House

We ended our evening with dinner at the Union Oyster
House which is the oldest continuously operating restaurant
in the US. It was started in 1826. Aaron had his first lobster
and he was a fan. Avery just ate the cornbread they gave us
and I had clam chowder and liked it.
