The One With the Newport Mansions

Yesterday, Emmie, Bri, Kiff and I went to the Newport Mansions. Kiff has been interested in mansions as of late, so we decided to visit.

Before we arrived, we had to take brief detour in West Bridgewater - home of my dad. Bri was feeling a little blah and Kiff had to use the bathroom, so we got off at the main road which I remember from days gone by. What a nice, albeit brief, stroll down memory lane.

We arrived at the Breakers around 2:00 PM or so. I was amazing. I had not been there in a while. Although not much has changed, they did do an audio tour now, which everyone can enjoy. They had a kid and adult one. I did the adult one, but everyone else enjoyed the kids.


We strolled through the mansion, which took about 90 minutes, and the kids thoroughly enjoyed the place. Wow! To believe people lived there.

When we were done, we reveled in the beauty of the outside then made our way home down Ocean Drive with is scenic and beautiful vistas.

All and all a great way to usher in the second day of 2015.
