We took a weeklong vacation to New England. Since the drive is so long, we spread each leg of the trip over two days so we could make the drive part of the adventure.
Is anyone buying that? OK. The real reason was that Lyra had some serious bouts of screaming in the afternoon and we COULDN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!! No, really, she was pretty good, it's just that the hour of screaming seemed like five.
We stayed with our friends, Jeff and Mary Withey, for a night on the way up and that was really fun. Then we spent a week in Maine at Linekin Bay. On the drive home, we'd meant to go at least as far as Connecticut but, again, the screaming(!) so we didn't make it that far. However, we were so lucky that our patience ran out right by Old Sturbridge Village!
Old Sturbridge Village is a living history museum that demonstrates life in a rural New England town in the 1830s. That is a not-to-be-missed excursion so we spent the night, then took our time in the Village the next day. We got home very late but it was well worth it. Tons of pictures follow.
