On Labor Day we decided to head up north. We've only seen the Manchester New Hampshire air port and decided Portsmouth was worth a try. We got through the toll booth quickly thanks to the EZ Pass (why didn't we get this before?) and enjoyed driving around the charming historic looking downtown area. I think Portsmouth beats both Providence and Boston for looks in my book. We got out for a walk around Prescott Park.

We were sad that we didn't get a family photo with the reunion shirts on so we repented and tried to take one. This is the best we could do.

Dad and Will

David and Mom

Brad made me do it, I swear

David preferred to lying on the dock....

If you look carefully the middle part of this bridge has been drawn up to let a sail boat through. We were both pretty fascinated because neither one of us had seen a drawbridge before.

Beautiful old homes. Maybe next time we'll be able to do the
Strawberry Banke tour.

Well Mom this is my last attempt to get you here for fall--you'd love Portsmouth!

Brad wanted to be sure we had a photo of this. It was just across the river in Maine (we think).
We considered stopping at touch tank to let David touch starfish and other sea creatures but we got a little lost in search of a drive through and decided it was better to head onto Maine.

I wonder if it's like the Portsmouth here by the sea? Looks like fun! We would love to visit the east coast - perhaps one day! xx
