My favorite night of our wonderful annual trip to drop off Maddie was dinner at Sail Loft followed by ice cream at Dockside in a tiny coastal village in S Dartmouth MA called Padanaram. New Bedford was nice enough and offered an easy ferry to Martha’s Vineyard. We even enjoyed our evening in Amsterdam NY on the first leg of the journey. You need some highlights on any trip that marks the official end of an amazing summer with your kids.
