Hey, day-trippers! We’re at it again, finding the best things to do in 1 day in the most charming of CT towns…this time we’re Day Tripping in Old Saybrook.
To please our eyes and fill our soul, we recently visited Kent Barns’ art district. We perused 6 uniquely diverse art galleries covering everything from the avant-garde to classic and showing artists who are household names to the up-and-coming. All of it can be found within one beautiful block. Forget Chelsea, a world of friendly fine art is right here at Kent Barns!
We enjoyed our visit to Livingston Ripley Waterfowl Conservancy so much that we haven’t shut up about it since. If you’ve bumped into us recently, you’ve probably heard us muttering away about “the birds”!
Heya, day trippers! Today we’re in Mansfield, the “Quiet Corner” of CT. We don’t get up there much which is a shame because it’s beautiful! Mansfield is home to UCONN (Storrs is a village in Mansfield – we never knew!), great ice cream, beautiful pastoral scenery, and all you could need for a well-rounded day trip (or longer!). A cultural and recreational destination!
Day tripping fans, we have another marvelous itinerary for you! Grab your friends, download our Gmap, and go spend a delightful day in and around Stonington, Connecticut. With its coastal charm and rich history, it’s a gem!

Our specialty, BFF day trips! And this one was epic! We were able to fit so much into a day in SoNo (South Norwalk) because it’s especially awesome like that. Park your car (plenty of parking options) and spend the day on foot. There’s a lot to see and do within walking distance. Our kinda town!
