Back to vacation posts, but don't worry, we're almost done. On Thursday (meaning July 25th) it was cold and rainy, so we decided to go to Newport since the beach was obviously going to be freezing. I always look forward to visiting Newport, the cute stores, fun buildings and looking at all the boats.  We walked around for a couple hours and had lunch at  The Red Parrot, I highly recommend it, SO delicious! I had fish and chips and it was my favorite of the week (I had fish & chips 3 times, it would have been more but I decided I should eat some other food too.)

My all time favorite store in Newport is Geoclassics. Ever since I was little I've been fascinated by all the fun pieces. They have minerals, fossils and gemstone jewelry. I never leave the store empty handed - this year I got an amazing ammonite pendant, mine came from Madagascar but they have them from multiple locations. I almost got a larger pair that I would have put on display but it was $150 (you can see some here.)
