Portsmouth

Nice morning in Hallowell with Alice, then to Kittery. Got settled in our BnB, then walked into Portsmouth for dinner. Perfect weather...

Day 2 in Portsmouth: started with a walking tour of Portsmouth, then spent the rest of the day at Strawberry Banke--very interesting museum of old houses, but from different time periods in Portsmouth history. There are also people role playing various historical characters, like Mrs. Shapiro who was making apple strudel. Historically, it was quite a diverse community with many immigrants from Europe, slaves and also many free blacks.
