Connecticut – State #24

After flying back to New York City from Louisville, we drove to Storrs, Connecticut. We stayed there one night before continuing on our trip. We had talked about this part of our journey before we left, figuring out how we wanted to tackle the New England states. We love New England, it’s a beautiful area that we have visited before and will definitely be back. We figured there were two ways to do this … we could do one-night stays in most states, or drive through them all in one day and end up in Maine for 3 nights. We knew we were coming off a busy weekend flying to and from Louisville and opted for a multiple night stay in Maine.

We were in 5 states in one day! So different back here to go from one state to another in a matter of minutes. 🙂 First up, like mentioned above, was Connecticut. We looked around the UConn campus a bit and enjoyed the scenery and, especially after NYC, the light traffic.

Most states seem to have a “welcome center” rest stop right at the border. Many times there is a good sign there. Can you find the MINI? 🙂
