Newport, RI 2015 – 2016

Newport, RI Trips 2015 and 2016

In October of 2015, I made my first trip to Newport, Rhode Island and I have been there 5 more times so far in 2016.  On our first trip, we flew through Providence, RI, but on the other trips we have been flying directly to Boston Logan Airport from DFW.  Also coming in from Boston you drive by the Cape Cod split in the highway.  If I get more time, I would like to go see Cape Cod.

These pics are all from October, 2015 in Newport with Clint, Paul, Larry and myself.  Very good seafood right on the water.  Fish right from the fishermen on the piers.  Newport is a big yacht town; they have the America’s Cup races there in summer.  Not so much going on in October.

 

Note from 2021:  Some of the people in photo at left got in trouble in early 2021

Chris, Les, Edgar and I eating and drinking after work.  It is very nice to be staying down on the waterfront.  Hotel prices triple in July as compared to February prices.  Many bars and pubs are also closed after tourist season is over.
