Wander back through history at The Breakers. See what traces of the early workers and owners are still visible as you imagine what it was like to live here all those years ago.

If you've got time to stop for a while in Bellevue Avenue Historic District, The Breakers is a good place to start your exploring. This historically significant residence is one of many attractions worth seeing here. Fort Adams State Park, International Tennis Hall of Fame and Museum, and Naval War College Museum are also waiting to be discovered close by.

The Breakast would have been nice with a choice of eggs. The Mexican was good and maybe scrambled could also be offered if someone doesn’t like spices.

Newport, with it's mansions, beaches, Cliff Walk and harbor scene are not to be missed while visiting RI. A little more than a 30 minute drive from downtown Providence and you're in a whole other world. Don't miss sipping cocktails in the Adirondack chairs on the lawn at Castle Hill.

Do the Cliff Walk (free of charge) starting at the 40 steps South to the Duke mansion at Rough Point. Wear good footwear.
