In recent years I have been searching for those fairytale Christmas towns to get me in the holiday spirit. This years pick was Newport and the mansion tours.
The Breakers
You can buy tickets for their self guided tours to three mansions- The Breakers, The Elm and Marblehouse.
The Elm
I appreciated getting all these great ideas for decorating trees, fireplaces and doorways – realizing you can do much more with an ornament besides hanging it on a tree.
Marble House
It’s also a great activity to do regardless of the weather. A great side trip is to Castle Hill for their hot chocolate bar or to stop in to One Pelham Place and hear the dueling pianos.
This is a non-promotional blog. I am not a photographer nor am I selling anything through this blog. Professionally I am a Business Transformation Specialist focused on gaining efficiencies and reducing costs for major corporations. Recent life experiences made me better appreciate the present and all that can be seen by increasing my focus and attention on my surroundings. I always enjoyed going out and exercising and I would look but I did not see as my attention was on resolving some problem. Captured through pictures and sharing insights about various locations, I hope others can enjoy my research and insights and allow themselves to pause a few moments and truly appreciate and learn new things. When you follow me that is my only gift. To know I have touched you enough to want to follow the blog.
