Day 2.1 Rhode Island

The following day we did not slow down.  We gathered my family and John's family and headed for Rhode Island.  I had never been to Rhode Island and I really wanted a picture next to the Rhode Island sign.


Of course they put the Rhode Island sign in the median along a very dangerous highway so no one can stand next to it and get a picture.

After we arrived in Rhode Island, we and happened upon the oldest restaurant in America.  That will happen in New England, history in every corner.  Not only is it the oldest restaurant in America, they claim it to be the 10th oldest restaurant in the world.



I couldn't remember when the Tavern opened, but luckily I took this picture to remind me.


And this one...


And this one....



More on Rhode Island coming soon.

Incredible pictures!! What a beautiful restaurant, I MUST go there!! I didn't even know there was such a place - the oldest restaurant in America. I'm glad you didn't risk your safety to stand next to the Rhode Island sign.
