Rhode Island Adventure Day Two: Rhode Island In’s and Out’s

Woke up early to get rental car, a sweet red Yaris…ya that’s right a Yaris! Headed to Providence got off at the Roger Williams Park and Zoo, didn’t see the zoo but we did see a lot of sweet statues and houses. Got simi-lost outside of the park ended up in Providence at Dunkin Doughnuts. Id like to take this time to inform you that there are over 300 Dunkin doughnuts in the state of Rhode Island. Went to the Capitol Building, it’s the only building like that except for the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. Parked downtown and walked and walked and walked and walked. Went to the Mall and then went and saw the city. Walked along the river and saw where they have Fire & Water, it’s a celebration where they set bowls on fire in the water and have music from different cultures and food and dancing and a jolly time all around (they did not have the celebration that day or any day we were going to be in Rhode Island) walked by memorials and parks and schools shops and sweet east coast buildings downtown. Had lunch at Cheesecake Factory. Headed north to Pawtucket to visit Hasbro Headquarters. Visited with a sweet mustache man at the visitors center heard about the Pawtucket Rivers history then got directions to Hasbro, they were closed. But we did get a picture with Mr. Potato Head. Drove back to the hotel for a rest that turned into quite a long nap. Went to Newport and stopped in Jamestown to go see the Beaver Tail light house, but our feet in the ocean, saw a beaver (we think), walked around the lighthouse, picked up a crap and drove across the Jamestown bridge and the Pell Bridge. Walked down Thame Street and then meet Renee for our Ghost Tour. Walked around for an hour hearing stories of Newport’s Past and Haunted present. Ryan got scared. Drove back to Warwick ate pizza from Papa Johns. Loaded pictures from the days adventures set our alarm for 9:00 am. Fell asleep.
