My mom had read about the Fire & Ice festival in Rhode Island and was excited to go so we all joined my parents for a weekend trip to Providence. It was nice to meet up and hang out with Olga there as well. We arrived in time to go to the RISD museum, where Chase found a hippo that is similar to the ones in the Louvre and Met. Once it started getting dark, we saw the lighting of the cauldrons, and walked around the river with the lights and boats. It was a very fun atmosphere! The next day, we went by the Stonington Light House and Palmer House, before stopping to get some baked good at Sift in Mystic on our way home.
