Day 3- Pilmouth Plantation & Grist Mill

We left Bourne, MA and started our way back
up north with a stop at Pilmouth Plantation
and Grist Mill. We learned about the early
settlers way of life and listened to the actors
stories. We made a stop at a functioning
Grist Mill and purchased some corn meal
to bring home. We also made a stop to
visit the Plymouth Rock memorial before
heading to Boston.

Day 2- Newport Vineyard and Dinner at Evelyn's Drive In

We ended our evening in Rhode Island
with a short stop at the Newport Vineyards
and then dinner at Evelyn's Drive In. We like
to find diners that were featured on Diners,
Drive Ins, and Dives when we are on vacations.
I didn't have what Guy had because it was
$39!

Day 2- The Breakers Newport, RI

We toured one of the many Newport mansions.
This one is called "The Breakers". It was
built by the Vanderbilt family in 1865. It was
their summer home and they only used it
for 6 weeks. The tour had a great kids
audio tour and they both really enjoyed it.

Day 2- Cliff Walk Newport, RI

We left Massachusetts and headed to Rhode Island for
the afternoon. We toured the Newport Cliff Walk on
our way to visit one of the Newport mansions. The kids
braved the rocks but mom wasn't wearing her climbing
shoes.

Day 2- Nobska Light House

We continued to Woods Hole, MA to visit
the Nobska Light House. We did not get to go
in it as it was closed on the day we visited.

Day 2- Hyannis, MA

Day 2 started with us driving through Cape
Cod and stopping in Hyannis, MA to visit
the JFK memorial. We had thought we might
go to Martha's Vineyard but decided against it.
The kids each had their own camera this vacation
and they loved taking pictures of EVERYTHING!

Day 1- We Made It!

We survived 5pm Boston traffic and made
it safely to Bourne, MA after we had a quick
dinner at Friendly's.

Day 1--- It's Travel Time

Avery was so excited about her first time
riding in a plane! We were unsure of what
would happen with the weather due to
tropical storm Cindy so we went early to
New Orleans and slept at a hotel right
by the airport.
