As we reach Final Descent, we fly just to the west of Newport, RI. Newport
has been for a long time the summer home for the rich. The Kennedy's as
well as the Vanderbilts have had summer homes for many generations. You
can take a driving tour of the mansions, for more info: http://www.newportmansions.org. The area where the Mansions are located is marked in the top photo.



The second photo has the Harbor areas of both Newport and Jamestown as
well as the bridges you would take to get them from Mainland Rhode Island.
Newport and Jamestown two of the many islands that gave the state of Rhode
Island its name. The mainland part which borders Connecticut and contains
Providence, was once referred to as Providence Plantation.










The third photo down has a view of the Newport area and where the Mansions are in relation to Downtown and the Harbor. Newport is a great place to visit in the summer. For information check out: http://www.destinationnewport.com.






Finally, the bottom photo, has a view of Fall River, MA as well as Bristol, RI, (another, island of RI), as we turn to land NW at PVD. Providence Airport, (PVD) is a convenient airport and easy to get in and out of. It is a no-hassle alternative to Boston's Logan Airport. www.pvdairport.com .
