Rhode Islanders

We are visiting Providence around the new year. My SIL emailed me to ask what we might want to do while there. Last time we visited, we went to some brew pub downtown with delcious calamari, and we ate plenty of oysters and quahog clams - all of which we would like to do again. There was mention of some First Night festivities in Providence and Boston. Other than that, what would you recommend? Any must-sees?

Oh, and on a previous visit, we toured a winery. It was fine, but I don't think we need to do that again.

  • If you hang out by the capitol building (or city call, or whatever they call it) in Providence after dark, you can watch the gays have the sex.  For reals.

  • I've already been to the Minneapolis airport, so I don't know if I need to see that.

  • I think you are talking about Trinity Brewhouse? Or Union Station. Both good.

    Hmm, all my activities are beach and food centered. Beach is a no go in Providence, so I can just tell you good places to eat. Would that help?

    For less then ten cents a day, you can feed a hungry child.
  • I've always wanted to see when the gays go to spawn.

  • Well then I would recommend the Dark Lady or Mirabar.

  • Yes, places to eat would be good. We have also gone to the Breakers (is that right), which I beleive was at the beach. It was fun, but I think it's going to be too cold for such activites.

  • When I get a little more time, I'll put together a list of places I'd recommend eating.

    I don't think Providence's First Night is anything special any more.  The budget has been slashed the last few years, so Boston might be a better bet for that.  There are definitely more fun things to do in the summer around here, but you should still do a Newport trip.
