Friday the weather was great, so Julie and I went back to Portsmouth. We visited a couple of the shops in Market Square, Marco Polo and the Treehouse Toy Shop, and bought gifts for our grandkids, including these glow-in-the-dark magnetic butterflies.
and had an alfresco lunch.
We then visited the Stonewall Kitchen Company Store, and I might have gone a little nuts.
A little bit farther south we stopped at The Beach Plum in Hampton.
We got ice cream, and then walked across the street to sit on the seawall and watch the ocean.
It was a great day. It was sunny, warm, a bit breezy and very comfortable. We drove home, had dinner and called it a day.

So glad you had such a packed, wonderful day together! The weather looks perfect for these delightful, wandering adventures!
I'm enjoying all your photos and talk of Portsmouth and the seacoast. I lived in Portsmouth for three years in the 90s, and I remember everything with great fondness. I'm so glad you can share this with your great friend Julie!
The weather certainly looked a lot better. Looks like terrific fun and eats.
Looks like a glorious day! Only ice cream at the Beach Plum? I think I would have had to try some clam chowder, a lobster roll, or BOTH!!! :o))
