Portsmouth, New Hamsphire

At this point, I have lost total track of days as we are definitely weary travelers and ready to go home.  We are actually cutting our trip short a couple of days and going home.  The kids are done and I am done. Even though I am sharing 50 percent of the driving with my mother, I feel every time I get in the car to drive somewhere that it instills dread in me instead of joy.  It's almost like I am suffering from PTS when I get behind the wheel I feel anxiety.  On the day we drove to the Canadian side of the Waterfall {Niagra}, I suffered an actual panic attack.  It was dark, the cars were speeding by me and all of a sudden my heart was racing and I started feeling faint.  I had to pullover and stick my head between my legs.  My mom had to drive us home for the rest of the way. Anyway, back to Portsmouth.  One afternoon we drove out to the cute town of Portsmouth, New Hampshire where we met my step-sister and her daughter.  The town is so cute is worth the drive to see if you are ever in the Massachutes-New Hamshire area.  We ate at a restaurant called Goat.   The food was pretty good, but warning the portion sizes are huge!!! Walking around Portsmouth will give you the feeling of walking around many England or Irish small town.  So many cute shops that are completely not your average chain commercial store and so many yummy restaurants.  Then hop over the bridge and go to Kittery.  Take time and drive down or up the hwy 1 and you won't be disappointed.  Gorgeous coastal views and cute homes and Inns to see!
