๐ A Rhode Island Christmas: From Gilded Mansions to Cozy Villages โ
Issue #31: Mansions, Villages & Coastal Charm
Happy Half Week!
Think Rhode Island, and you might picture sandy beaches and summer vibes. But come December, the Ocean State transforms into a winter wonderland with a unique Christmas charm all its own. โ๏ธ
Here's how to celebrate the holidays Rhode Island-style:
Newport Mansions Aglow: Forget your average Christmas lights. These Gilded Age mansions go all out with extravagant decorations that'll transport you back in time. Think sparkling chandeliers, towering trees, and enough festive cheer to fill a ballroom (or ten).
Holiday Events & Festivities: From Christmas markets overflowing with handcrafted gifts to tree lightings that'll warm your heart, Rhode Island's towns and villages know how to celebrate. Don't miss the holiday concerts and caroling events that fill the air with festive melodies.
Coastal Christmas Charm: Experience the magic of Christmas by the sea! ๐ Think decorated harbors, holiday boat parades, and the salty tang of the ocean mingling with the scent of pine needles. It's a truly unique New England experience.
