Preston chose NYC - Yankees games - touristy stuff
Meranda chose So Cal - San Diego - Anaheim - SeaWorld - Disneyland - Beach
Parker chose the New England States - all six of them
It was a great trip. The northeast is beautiful. I love the New England Accents.
We did visit all 6 states, although one was just a drive through.
I don't think I will go back there again - but if I do.....
I would spend more time in Vermont.
I would spend NO time in Connecticut.
If I had a choice - I would send my children to Harvard - not Yale.
I would love to rent a beach house along the Maine Coast.
Our fun packed trip included:
Boston Red Sox GameVisiting the Boston Temple (it was closed and there is no visitors center)
Visiting Cambridge - Harvard Campus
Walking the Freedom Trail - really cool - other than they basically charge you to see the historic buildings - which is a rip off - and no we did not pay
Prudential Center - Skywalk Observatory
Boston Harbor Sunset Cruise (a very SLOW boat ride around the Harbor)
The 4th of July Fireworks
JFK Library - very cool!
Plymouth Rock (cute town)
New Haven, CT - Yale campus - a TOTAL DIVE!
Deerfield, MA - Yankee Candle Store/factory
Montepelier, VT - a very cute town - an amazing Italian Restaurant
Waterbury, VT - home of Ben & Jerry's - very good ice cream - bought cute shirts - and lost some of them somewhere along the way
Lake Winnipesaukee, NH
Portsmouth, NH
Maine Coast - very cool - the houses are super cute
North Hampton, NH - ate at a delicious pizza place - Flatbread pizza
Hampton, NH - as Parker said - a totally "ratchet" place - we couldn't wait to get out of there
The scenery was beautiful. The people were nice. They had no idea where Salt Lake City was - one lady thought it was in Arizona. I guess they don't focus on US Geography in school.
We had some good family time! I love my family. I missed Preston, Katie and Beau.
Glad to be home.....
