Project 333 – On Holidays

Leave a comment

We are away for a couple of days of the Easter break and going to a music festival.

The clothes I am wearing are pretty much my standard casual wear and I have taken a couple of photos to show you.  Unfortunately, my laptop and camera and not ‘talking’ to each other at the moment so the photos will have to wait until I get home.

2012-04-08 01I brought a pair of jeans and my my charcoal grey travel pants as well as two 3/4 sleeve t-shirts – red/white stripe and black/white stripe with a rugby top for the cooler evening as we have been outdoors until well after midnight.

2012-04-08 02My footwear is a pair of red lace-up casuals from Ecco.  I did also bring my sneakers (not on the list) just in case there was wet weather and the shoes got wet on the first day.  The weather has been absolutely gorgeous so the sneakers have stayed firmly ensconced in the bottom of my bag.

A look around the festival at other attendees reinforces that there was no particular dress-code – it really is a matter of anything goes!  My priority was comfort and that suited me nicely.

I hope some of my US readers will be able to help with tips and information for our upcoming trip.

We will be spending 4 weeks in the north-east  of the United States later this year.  It will be be late August and into mid  September.

We are flying into Washington DC and spending 4 nights there .  Our accommodation is booked for those nights.  The rest of the trip is still flexible so would love your ideas.  I am thinking of 2 nights in Philadelphia, 4 nights New York City, 2-3 nights in Boston.  From there we hope to hire an RV and have about 15 nights touring.  We hope to travel as far as Bangor, ME as well as travelling through New Hampshire, Vermont and New York State.  Other things I have heard/read about which interest me include lighthouses along the Maine coastline, Mt Washington and fall scenery, Woodstock and Watertown,NY.

We have never been to the United States before and would like to make sure we maximise our time there.

Thanks again for your help.
