Day 54 – Lady Liberty Here We Come

So today starts our last full day travelling in the RVs. Our destination for our last night is the New Jersey Harbour RV park. When we researched the park online the reviews were very mixed. Basically it looks like the park is a parking lot without many amenities. It is however the closest park to …

Musings from an RV Newbie

Travelling in an RV was not something I ever thought we would do. However, when we looked at options for our road trip in USA we decided that an RV was our best chance to have the flexibility we wanted. We figured that it would enable us to stay pretty much anywhere (apart from NYC). …

Day 53 – Rain, Rain and More Rain

Today we awoke early to the sound (and sight) of drenching rain. Just as predicted, the heavens have opened with rain, rain and more rain. Our original plan was to go into Sleepy Hollow and check out Phillipsburg Manor. However when I looked into the details, you needed to book 48 hours in advance otherwise …

Day 52 – Leaving the Gentle Gentile Campground

After an uneventful night, Peter and I woke up and pottered about getting ready to head on to our next desintation. When we ventured outside we found a lovely hand-made Halloween present on our doorstep.  We thought it was a great way to share travelling adventures so we posted it on the Facebook page and …

Day 51 – Trying to Find Somewhere to Stay!

Today we wanted to go to Bridgeport to see the PT Barnum museum that I had found online (how exciting!!!). Bridgeport is pretty much halfway between Mystic and our final destination before NYC – Sleepy Hollow. So with that in mind, we starting checking for RV parks and that’s when we found there are NO …

Day 50 – Mystic Pizza

The first thing Peter and I did in the morning was to check on how Meagan was feeling. Luckily she is on the mend and we have planned an easy day so hopefully that will help in her recovery. Mindful of this, Peter and I had suggested that our next stop from Newport be Mystic …

Day 49 – Sailing into Newport

With some regret we said goodbye to Cape Cod this morning and headed on to our next destination. Our original plans were to visit the Hamptons. We’ve decided against doing this as the backtracking involved would have meant longer travel days and neither Meagan nor Rob are up for that. Instead, Peter and I worked …

Day 48 – Bar Hopping in P-Town

Today (22 October) we have a short trip from Dennisport to Provincetown where we are staying for the night. This was my request as I really wanted some more time to explore Provincetown. As it was only a short trip, we had a very leisurely start to the day and got on the road late …

Day 47 – Martha’s Place

So today we are heading to Martha’s Vineyard. I have wanted to visit here for years. I have read so many of Linda Fairstein’s novels which feature a main character (Alexandra Cooper) who has a house on the island. (I have, however, stopped reading her novels after seeing the movie “Now They See Us” about …

Day 46 – P-Town Part 1

(20 Oct.) As we’d agreed last night, the first order of the day was to see if we could book another two nights at Camper’s Haven. This turned out to be no problem at all, which meant we could head to Provincetown for the day. Peter and I decided to start the washing early, so …
