Newburyport, MA
If you want to spend a nice day walking in a great New England town, try Newburyport. It’s a well kept coastal town with good restaurants, beautiful views, an active common area, and enough shops to satisfy any housewife. On my trip there I was accompanied by my wife, daughter, son, and son-in-law. The weather was perfect and we spent the afternoon wandering around.
When we arrived, the town was humming with activity, but it was easy to find a place to park. There was music playing in the common area and number of food concessions were set up. Most of us had a bowl of chowder and it was easy to find a place to sit. Then we started walking around looking at the various parts of the towns. After a while my wife and daughter wanted to enter a couple of the shops. The guys continued to walk until we saw a coffee shop. We grabbed a coffee then checked on the women. For a few minutes I began wondering if I could actually call this a walk of a shopping trip. Fortunately “walking” passed the 51% test - then some. It was a good walk with great scenery.
