This past weekend my family and I were “tourists in our own town.”

It has become our annual ritual - we stay at a downtown hotel and do all the tourist-y stuff we wouldn’t do otherwise.

This year we took a horse-drawn carriage tour, went to the art gallery, shopped, swam, and ate a ton of food.

I confided in my husband that what I’d really like to do one day is to map out a tour of eating at all our best local restaurants. There are so many places I’ve heard about but have yet to try.

It would end up costing as much as a “real” trip but would be so much more tasty and convenient!
