There is never enough time in the day to get everything we want to be done. Which means we tend to find ourselves with little time to kick back and relax. If you don’t recharge your batteries every now and then, you’ll burn out. This is why you need to pack up and take the family on a good vacation every now and then.

With the whole world at your fingertips, there are a lot of ways you can handle a family trip. But if you are looking for a nice little excursion with the family, there’s one place that should be at the top of your list. A place we just went to that you and the family will love. We just went on a Getaway to Rhode Island and you guys won’t believe how much there is to do in that wonderful little state.

Being based out of New York, we got ourselves on an Amtrak and took a nice little ride up there to get our Getaway to Rhode Island started. Being able to ride up on a train like in the old days, taking in the sights of the East Coast fully in its Autumnal bloom is quite the sight. It helps get the trip started off in the best way possible.

For example, we went on a fun little on-track bike tour at the southern circuit of the Rail Explorers. You get a ground-level view of the gorgeous sights that really take your breath away in the Fall. When you’re done with that, you can take a ride on over to The Sailing Museum to get a really good look at the history of the boat-centric area that is Rhode Island.
