Any ideas for things to do June 20 as a local?
Morning everyone! Just looking to see if anyone has any advice/ideas. I’ve been working 7 days a week for a few months now, and I took June 20th off back in April to check out the Lavender Fest in Mass with my mother. However, we didn’t realize how popular it’s gotten over the past few years, and it sold out almost 2 months in advance for that day.
Then, I wanted to check out the harbor seals at the New England Aquarium as a backup, and as of a few days ago, all of the seal events are closed due to molting season (that’s ok though obviously, love them 🥺)
Then I tried Mystic Aquarium because I have a membership, but the events I’m interested in there aren’t available either on Saturdays, in the summer, that specific day, or a mix of all of those. Plus I’m going with a friend in two weeks anyways,so if there’s nothing specific to do I don’t think it’s worth going twice in two weeks.
Now I’m pretty stumped on what to do 😭
Additional info: I’m in my 20s, she’s in her late 50s.
I’ve lived here my whole life, so it’s not really a “go to the Cliff Walk and around Newport” type of deal. I have a feeling it’ll be too hot for something like a hike, and I am an avid beach hater 😔
Location: We live in Newport County but are willing to drive for a day trip- like Boston, Mystic etc. Don’t want to go too far like NH but id say maybe within 1.5 hrs of Portsmouth?
I’m doing my own research, but I’m just curious if anyone else has any ideas off the top of their head that they could suggest :)
