    Three states in one day today. Setting off this morning to Newport, Rhode Island (the smallest state), home of the Americas Cup, to visit The Breakers, fabulous mansion house once home to the Vanderbilt family. The mansion has been used in the TV series The Gilded Age and the 1974 version of The Great Gatsby. It was built between 1893-94 and has 48 bedrooms. The visit did not disappoint. This was a sight worth going round but bizarrely we only had an hour and a quarter at our disposal. The gardens were also lovely and in fact it was possible to walk right down to the sea (the breakers!) but we simply didn’t have time to do justice to it all. I must rewatch The Gilded Age to check out scenes which were filmed at The Breakers.
    After a short lunch break, on the coach again into Connecticut to the Mystic Maritime Museum, a recreation of a 19th century seaport. This was a pleasant stroll in the sun around the exhibits but not as splendid as The Black Country Living Museum in Birmingham for example. A lot of things were closed. Back on the coach by 4.15 pm and now to the hotel in Providence, Rhode Island.
