This weekend I was in Newport for a wedding. I drove down on Saturday, missing the Bruins parade, and headed straight for the beach. The clouds made for a lousy tan but it was fun to see everyone and relax. After the beach we headed to Fluke restaurant for the rehearsal dinner. This place is a must if you go to Newport. The food was amazing, especially the bacon wrapped dates, lobster-avocado salad and scallops. Roomie thinks the lobster avocado salad is a top 5 dish of all time. Afterward, we went to Clarke’s Cooke House. Not only did we spy a few Patriot’s players, but we also saw Bruce Willis eating dinner. Not too shabby for a celeb sighting outside of Hollywood.
I made a promise to you my readers that I would go running on Sunday. Not only did I go for a run, but I went twice as long as planned. This was no intentional. Roomie told me to go a certain way so I could enjoy the mansions and waterfront views. He didn’t mention is was about 6 miles.
Newport mansions
I didn’t mind the extra miles but decided I’d give myself some much needed rest on Monday. My voice was beginning to sound like sexy phone operator. The wedding started at 5:30 pm on Sunday out on Goat Island overlooking the harbor. The weather was picture perfect!
The Regatta Place
We left at 6:30 AM on Monday to get back to Boston for work. It was a blast.
I’m still learning how to post on WordPress and am on the train headed to NYC for the next couple days. It seems like everyone these days is getting married! I heard one guy that had 14 lined up for this summer! FOURTEEN! I only have one more left at the end of the summer. I wish I could post more but we are pulling up now to Penn Station! xoxo
QUESTION: Do you love to get lost running like me?
I do love getting lost, it pushes me farther because I keep telling myself “has to be close to the end” and “just a bit further” unlike when I know exactly how much more I have to go.
I thought I wouldn’t like to get lost because perhaps time consuming but Taylor raised a good point, you never know when you’re going to end up and that’s better than knowing when you see a certain place like a track field, you know you’re about to be done
