So Saturday was spent in Downtown wandering through the various shops and along the river. One of the major features of Mystic is the drawbridge that opens, um, all the time. There’s even a local pizza place that offers half off all slices when the bridge is up. Here is a selection of photos from Saturday.
Geoff here – as we were walking along, I noticed that this particular area near the river (which is really an estuary of sorts) seems to be a pretty popular fishing spot. I will have to remember to bring my fishing gear sometime if we are able to spend more time there in Mystic. There is so much stuff around there that we did not even get to see. Mystic strikes me as one of those kind of places that you will probably not run out of stuff to do for quite some time. There is even at least one beach nearby that allows people to bring their dogs.
Geoff again – I have never seen the movie, but I am sure that at some point I will go check it out from the Cambridge library. But the pizza is indeed pretty good, although it sure seems like that place is mostly for the tourists and the locals all eat somewhere else. Well, we will still buy the frozen ones anyway.
Aaaaaand, that was Saturday. We had a great time and we manged to get through it without sunburn, bug bites, or spending too much money. Next post, our day at the Seaport on Sunday.
