NEW HAMPSHIRE - PORTSMOUTH







We left Darcey and Tony's house the next morning about 9.30 (although Bea did her best to get us out of bed at about 6am by running into the room and thumping her tail against the pillows) so that we had time to stop off in New Hampshire on the way back to Vermont. Darcey had recommended Portsmouth and what a gorgeous town it is.
It was a lovely sunny day (although still cold), with beautiful old historic buildings (or reproductions) and lots of lovely shops.
Apart from lunch and a latte from Starbucks (a really nice Christmas one - something like a white chocolate peppermint mocha), I didn't buy anything.
Maybe my retail therapy/shopping spree is over.
Maybe it's a sign.
Maybe Nicola was just a bad influence on me.
Either way, I'm saving money. Well not really saving, just not spending.
