Vanderbilt Mansions: The Breakers In Newport!

On our way home from our trip to Nantucket we decided to take the kids to see the Vanderbilt mansions and walk along the cliff walk in Newport. The last time we came here was when we had all four kids and that was in 2013! Chelsea was nearly eight years and my oldest was a senior in high school! It doesn't seem that long ago, but looking at these photos from this post and the ones we took of the kids now is proof that time does fly! And fast! It was a beautiful sunny day and wish I could have spent the night on the lawn outside The Breakers mansion! I only took a few photos of the rooms that caught my eye and because I wanted to just re-read and re-learn everything about this mansion focused on just that and so did the kids. We love history and old mansions and this is a perfect place to come as a family. All the rooms were interesting to read about. Noah's favorite place was the piano room. Chelseas was the bedroom with the pink floral wallpaper. Mine was the library room and you can see a little snippet of that room here on my TikTok. And of course- Jon's was the kitchen that was filled with copper pots! More photos below!
