Today, as the sun filtered through the trees into our tent flaps, we awoke and
ate oatmeal and grapes on the meadow grass. As Elazar's guitar music set the mood
for the relaxed day, we packed up and set out for our tour around the Breakers,
one of the most famous mansions in Newport. After taking a tour, making our
bi-weekly human pyramid and lounging around in the large seaside yard, we
started our hike along the Cliff Walk towards the beach. A casual lunch on the
rocks and a long walk alongside the cliffs allowed for lots of words games and
family bonding. After climbing over rocks and through tunnels, we reached the
long awaited beach and jumped into the cold water and tanned in the sand. After
a long walk back to the bikes and a trip to Stop and Shop, we returned to the
meadow to make a dinner of burgers and salad. To finish off the relaxed day, we
met up with our new Newport friends for smores and funny stories as the sun went
down.
