Default Oh-ficial McBee Schedule

I booked my tickets (for $10). I'm flying in late tues(21st) to Providence, RI and flying out late Monday (27th) from Providence.

Providence is perfect for US people, as it is in the middle of everything! ~60 miles to New london, ~30 to Fall River.

I'm planning to spend extra time @ New London and/or Fall River, Or maybe do Rev War stuff on Wednesday

I'll be getting a rental car, the rest is pending.

Anybody want to hang out or tag along, feel free to contact me, I'm game

McBees lead the way.

Just outside the UCONN campus in Groton, there's a nice locale called "East Point" where you can just sit down and watch boats go by for hours on end. It's only about a 15 minute drive South from the submarine museum, and there's a decent seafood restaurant on site overlooking the marina. It might be worth checking out if you show up early.

Here's a quick and dirty aerial photo I whipped up:

update:

Everything is booked!
I'll be staying in Providence tuesday night.

I got a rental car for the whole trip, on a side note when we go to Boston, I really don't want to drive there (I have good intel on those boston drivers! and I ain't talkin about the dogs) So would it be possible to bum a ride with someone there?


and the cabins, we need to bring our own bedding? And does anybody want to split a room?

I'll split a room with you. If they sleep more than 2 more are welcome to keep costs as low as possible. I am a broke college student after all
