Newport has some interesting shopping. Get some stuffies (stuffed quahog clams) if you like seafood. They should be eaten with a squeeze of lemon and the cheapest vinegar and cayenne hotsauce you can find.
Just wait a minute.. Quahog is real?
Do you know the Griffins?
Came here to say stuffies. There is also Rhode Island clam chowder. All the other seafood was good too. Stopped at a public house that had free oysters that changed my mind about raw oysters.
The Breakers mansion tour was also cool.
HP Lovecraft's grave is there. I enjoyed looking around Providence at night thinking about it as part of his fictional universe.
I went to the Roger Williams Zoo.
There is a vampire grave people leave stuff at.
Also went to some museums and Block Island, but they just had a fire so that may be closed or difficult to get to right now.
