Rhode Island Vacation Part 5: Mystic, CT

On Wednesday we headed off to Mystic Connecticut. We started the day off at Olde Mystic Village which has over 60 fun and funky shops to browse through. We didn't bring the camera since we were so busy with shopping but we had a great time. The highlight for me was that we purchased a charm bracelet for me which I have always wanted. We also picked out 2 charms, a lighthouse to commemorate our RI vacation and a ladybug which represents my "Laina the Ladybug".

After shopping we headed over to downtown Mystic to eat at Mystic Pizza. We didn't see Julia Roberts but we did have a delicious pizza and the restaurant was really fun. Part of the movie was actually filmed there. They have flat screen TV's around the dining rooms that just loop the movie over and over again.

Me taking the first bite - yum!
We went with meatballs, roasted red peppers and onions.

The pizza box... "A slice of heaven"....just like the movie says!
