A week ago today, I went to Newport, RI with 3 other girls. Kendra & Rita were out from MN visiting friends, but they went to OH for a wedding so I was with Kendra & Rita on Saturday.
The first thing we did was part of the Cliff Walk. There's all kinds of mansions along the way!
We went off the walk to tour the Breakers Mansion. This is one of the gates:
Once you get inside the mansion, they give each person a headset with audio. You push play each time you enter the next room and it tells you all about it. I'm not a big history person, but I still enjoyed it!

The floor of the porch. Thought the pattern was kind of neat.
The porch on the second floor.
You weren't supposed to take pictures inside, but I snuck one on the second floor overlooking the big room on the first floor.

View of the back. If you look close, you can see 3 girls standing on the bottom porch.
It's us! ;)
Walking along the Cliff Walk
After the Cliff Walk, we ate lunch (more like lupper) in the car since it was raining. After that, we walked around downtown Newport. It ended up clearing up and the sun came out so it was really nice!
We met Lis at Kloter's Ice Cream Barn at 9 and had supper there :) It was a very fun day and I'm glad I got to go!!
