Friday, June 17 Secret Gardens of Newport - Pam, Kate, and Carol had a ground hog sort of day...all but a couple of the gardens were the same ones we had seen in June 2009, so not only were the locations the same, but the plants and flowers were in the same stage that we had seen previously. Had it not been pouring rain we would have been better sports (maybe we just needed Louise to get us on the right mental track!). Tour guides were not in good spi
rits and refused to come out of their protected spots to check off our tickets and guide us around the gardens, so we were mostly left to our own, with our questions largely unanswered, including if there were any NEW gardens! In spite of the tour, we had a fabulous time, and lots of laughs, and are determined to purchase really cute umbrellas for the next one! Lunch at Amber Road was really good! Favorite ideas: drink holder in Adirondack chair, and rain chain. Click here for photos.
