His Lordship was not on board with us taking another week long trip to Newport, Rhode Island.

.

.

And packing took a bit longer than anticipated….

.

.

But four hours later we checked into a nice resort on the harbor in downtown Newport.

.

.

We really enjoyed our first trip in March and since we didn’t have nearly enough time to see everything I wanted, trip number two happened the week before Memorial Day…. pre heavy tourist infestation.

.

.

We lucked out and got their best condo building. Top floor with balconies on each end, both with water views.

.

.

The drawback of that was a long narrow unit…

.

.

But it was comfortable…

.

.

And we didn’t spend much time there anyway.

.

.

.

.

.

The bathrooms were ample size.

.

.

The kitchen was not.

.

.

But we don’t cook on vacation, so who cares?

.

.

Morning coffee and tea on the balconies with these views wasn’t hard to take.

.

.

.

.

Sunsets at the cocktail hour were pretty sweet as well.

.

.

Stay tuned…
