Mystic

Before heading home we visited the Mystic, CT area for a few days. My work has an operation in Norwich, CT. I try to visit them once a year, so I figured this was as good a time as any! Carla drove down with us. She was glad to have a chance to spend a few more days with Braden! Carla has a cousin who lives in the area and they stopped by to see him. He works at a local Planetarium there. They recently renamed the Planetarium after him and one of the pictures below shows Anthony, Braden and Carla below a sign with the new name. If you've ever seen the movie Mystic Pizza, the character Cat works at the Planetarium and there is a scene when she walks out and it shows the old sign. We watched the movie this weekend because we thought it would be fun to see if we recognized anything... didn't think that would be included!


Thankfully Braden didn't really go overboard!

The Planetarium.

Exploring the boats at Mystic Seaport.

Driving the boats.

Checking things out with Grammy.

There were lots of beautiful flowers in Mystic.

That's a big anchor!

Daddy's shoulders are a great place to check things out. We found a concert in the park.

Braden loves pushing his stroller around.

He found this cool rock with fish statues in it!

There is an operating draw bridge in Mystic. We watched it go up and let the boats through.
