Newport, RI

So I talked about the first two days of our trip back East but I failed to mention the place were were staying. We stayed in Newport, RI and it was pretty. I guess it was a dead season. Half or more of the shops were closed. It is known for the summer season. The population in the summer doubles or more. We walked along the cliff walk for a mile or so. It went for about 4 miles along the coast.



This is the bridge you go from Jamestown to Newport on. At night it lights all up and is beautiful. You have to pay $2 every time you go across it and then $2 when you come back. I'm sure the locals have a pass or discount called the EZ pass, but I don't know how much that is.







Mom and Connelly out in the bitter cold, and that day it wasn't as cold as the prior two days. The prior two days, we stayed in the condo ALL DAY!!! That way we were warm, and didn't spend too much money. The food there was ridiculously expensive. You all know how Frugal I am. I am Frugal on vacation too.
