This was such an amazing find. Just outside of New

This was such an amazing find. Just outside of Newport is the Norman Bird Sanctuary. There is a small admission fee of $7 and your money goes to protect the land. ⁠
⁠
At the very end of the Hanging Rock Trail, you will come to this lookout over the ocean. It might be one the best trails I have ever stumbled upon. ⁠
⁠
Wear good shoes because the areas unique rock formations called “puddingstone” or Purgatory Conglomerate can be real ankle twisters. ⁠
⁠
The trail is one one mile long and part of it goes over wooden walkways. Kids would love scurrying over the rocks, but be careful at the cliffs edge. Look down at the pond. If you are lucky, you will see a busy beaver at work. ⁠

Here is a peek at my hotel room at The Hotel Viking. I loved the artwork in my room that gave a nod to the suffragette movement which was prevalent in this area. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
My kids would have LOVED the pool here, but they weren't invited on this trip 🤫⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I loved the little cafe called Hill Market which offers freshly brewed coffee, handmade pastries, on-the-go bites & fresh pressed juices. It was really nice to have such an easy option right there. ⁠⁠

My favorite activity when visiting Newport is The Cliff Walk. This 3.5 mile trail will bring you along the coast. Picture waves crashing on your left and gilded age mansions on your right. It is stunning. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I visited on the off season to avoid the crowds and sky-rocketing prices. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
I also love to stroll along Newport Harbor around sunset and admire all those golden hues on the water.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Don't miss the White Horse Tavern, which is the operating restaurant in the country! ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Coming to the blog soon: my complete travel guide to Newport. ⁠⁠

What is your favorite hotel in Newport? I always stay at the @hotelviking. It has a great location on Bellevue Ave, which is the same sought after address as the gilded aged mansions. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The prices are really affordable and they are family friendly... although the fam was not invited on this trip. Mama needed to relax after a year of homeschooling. SpaFjör was just the place!⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Hotel Viking recently went through a major renovation. Stay tuned for a peek later this week!⁠⁠

We are so fortunate to live in Massachusetts with so much local history. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The Old North Bridge in Concord was the site of the first real skirmish of the American Revolution, so it was a great place to bring the kids on Patriot's Day.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
On April 19, 1775, the brave residents of the colony took up arms and went to battle for independence—eventually leading to the creation of the United States of America.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The Concord Museum had a minuteman encampment set up with reenactments going on most of the day. The boys loved watching a musket demonstration and seeing how heavy the guns were.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The Minutemen were civilian colonists who independently formed militia companies self-trained in military strategies. They were known for being ready at a minute's notice, hence the name.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Kids are such visual learners. It's one thing to tell them about history. But to experience and see and touch is how they really learn. ⁠⁠

Exploring the rocky coastline of New England. I was able to capture this shot with my drone. If you travel down Ocean Avenue in Newport, Rhode Island, you will come to Brenton Point State Park. It is easy to park here. Just walk across the street to find these beautiful cliffs. ⁠
