Family Vacation – Driving & Day 1

Well, we reluctantly made it home from our fabulous family vacation to the east coast. We all had such a great time and we didn’t want to leave, but life goes on and we couldn’t miss any more work/school without getting too far behind.

Our trip started with a 6 hour drive up to New York to visit with my sister, aka ATM, and her husband Uncle A. Although we arrived late on Friday night, they welcomed us with open arms and we laughed a lot before we went to bed. On Saturday morning, they made us a delicious breakfast of homemade blueberry waffles, bacon, and eggs. It was absolutely delicious (you can’t go wrong with bacon) and the perfect start to our day, which included another lengthy drive. Before we left, I snapped a few pics of ATM’s awesome décor finds, but I will share those another day.

Later on Saturday night, we finally arrived at our destination, Salem, MA. After checking into our hotel, we set off to explore the area and get some dinner. We decided that we didn’t want to wait an eternity to get seated at some of the more popular eateries, so we chose a local pub, which had some of the best shrimp, scallops and pizza I have ever tasted. Our night then ended early so we could get some much needed sleep, but not before someone enjoyed a lot of bed jumping.

Day 2 coming soon…
