Today we awoke in Newport, Rhode Island. Unfortunately, it was a rainy day. However, it didn't stop us from tendering ashore, taking a bus to the Cliff Walk and hiking (in the blowing rain) as far as The Breakers, which was Cornelius Vanderbilt's 70-room cottage overlooking the ocean. We returned to the ship early in the afternoon, to put on dry clothes. We're relaxing in the room this afternoon with a glass of wine, watching the sail boat races in the rain.
The mom and sis came ashore around lunch time. We met them at the tender and suggested they take the trolley tour around the city. We haven't seen them since, but I'm sure they'll make it back before we depart at 4 p.m.
