I took Susan to Mystic, Conn. to a B&B and the Turner exhibit.
This first blog is about the House of 1833 B&B, and Mystic.
The whole weekend was delightful.
 |
A sea captain's house, this was a magnificent example of
what one could do with money back then.
|
 |
Susan in our room, the "Ivy". The hosts had two slices of birthday cake
waiting, as well as the decorations. And a decanter of port and glasses in the room!
|
 |
| In the hallway outside our room. |
 |
| Ditto |
 |
Exploring the downstairs before breakfast. Susan found the rooms very cluttered (true),
but most of the clutter was very high-end antiques, and I enjoyed it.
|
 |
| In the dining room. |
 |
| Susan at breakfast. The food was as good as anything I have had in a B&B. |
 |
A satiric poster, printed by men, of a
suffragette poster.
|
 |
| A painting of the ship captained by the builder of the house. |
 |
| Moe room views. |
 |
| The piano is a Chickering from the same year as the house, 1833. |
 |
| A Chinese wedding bed in the Peach room. |
 |
| Before sunrise, Mystic harbor. |
 |
| The Mayflower, being readied for Plymouth's 400th. |
 |
| Common Loon |
 |
| Hooded Merganser |
 |
| Later in the day, sunlight, Mystic Harbor, the "Charles W. Morgan" whaling ship. |
