Greetings from Newport, Rhode Island!
A little someone woke up bright and early this morning (I assume he was too excited to sleep!), so we were up and at ’em before the sunrise. Mal and I both wanted (needed?) coffee, so we got ourselves ready for the day. (Quinn thought the hairdryer was hilarious.)
The weather was a little chilly and quite windy, so we all bundled up. (Quinn’s super cool shark stroller is from Amazon.)
We rolled down Thames Street to Mokka, a nearby coffeehouse, like we’ve done in years past.
I ordered an iced coconut Americano, which was just okay. The espresso was a bit too weak for my liking, but I still drank it.
After our coffee adventure, we headed back to the condo and waited for Papi and Aunt Sib to wake up. Then, we all headed out for breakfast at our (old? new?) favorite place.
The Ocean Breeze Cafe is now Lorusso’s Cafe! Whoa. Mal’s family visited the Ocean Breeze Cafe for more than 25 years, so the change was quite the surprise.
Even still, we took our annual family photo outside!
Over the winter, the restaurant changed ownership and the inside was renovated– the end result was quite impressive. The interior is beautiful with a clean, modern, and upscale country feel.
The food was excellent too. I went with the Veggie Hash and pumpkin spice coffee. Mmm!
We’ll definitely miss the old Ocean Breeze Cafe, but we really liked the new Lorusso’s and we can’t wait to make new memories there!
More Newport adventures to come!
Question of the Day
How was your morning? What’d you eat for breakfast?
Sounds like a perfect day to me!!!!
Looks like such a fun trip so far! I love Newport, I remember the first time I went there I absolutely loved it and ever since, I’ve longed to visit again, so I’m looking forward to seeing all the photos you share!
Looks like such a fun weekend! Enjoy!!
I had a peanut butter bagel, prior to my 10k. After the race I had a banana, piece of cake, some fruit. I made some coffee when I got home and it was terrible. I made some hot apple cider, it was soooo good. Love the stroller
have a great day
Breakfast was an egg white turkey bacon burrito with salsa. I love that veggie hash! I need to try making that with my eggs.
I love that shark stroller! It’s the cutest, and I totally see myself getting one of those if I become a mom myself one day.
Breakfast this morning: blueberry pancakes with maple syrup and coffee. 🙂
Looks like such a fun time, Tina! Enjoy the weekend with your beautiful family 🙂
Today, I went to the farmers market to get pastured eggs and parsnips and cooked those up for breakfast! So, so good.
What a fun family day!!! I am enjoying Pumpkin Spice coffee as well. I just add pumpkin spice to my regular coffee grinds before brewing”¦YUM!
I had chocolate pancakes topped with almond butter and a latte.
Quinn and the hairdryer! Too cute!
I’m enjoying some coffee in front of the fireplace while I wait for the sun to come up this morning. Then heading for a run!
Looks chilly out in RI, but have a great weekend!
