Quick weekend trip with the family brought us to Salem, Massachusetts. A beautiful ride despite some traffic around a couple major cities and not too many meltdowns in the car (by me). Checked into our hotel and headed out into Salem for dinner and a stroll through town to see what we could see.
As we're leaving our restaurant, we encountered a haunting tour (that no one wanted to go on with me) and we hear the tour guide telling her group that the restaurant behind her, the one where we just had a fabulous dinner, is one of the most haunted restaurants in Salem. Thankfully the kids did not know this prior to us sitting down for dinner. Very cool though!
Salem by night was cool, very fun mural art throughout the main section of town, twinkling lights to add a little mood lighting and Samantha from Bewitched. I have got to get the kids to sit down to an episode, they'd probably like it.
Oh and, of course, ice cream. We always seem to manage to find the ice cream shops.
Salem by day was even more beautiful. We visited the Salem Witch Museum and then walked around town until lunch. Beautiful homes, colorful flower displays and plenty of cemeteries.
Anthony picked the lunch spot. Bit Bar Restaurant which I had no idea from the name what we would be getting into. Imagine a large room where the center of the room consisted of long rectangle tables for family style seating and the perimeter were side by side vintage arcade machines. The kids, including Anthony, loved it!
