We just moved to the area and are so delighted to find this book. We did some things before Covid shut things down, and have already dog eared many pages for future family adventures. The descriptions are engaging and witty and make us excited to explore.

Another superb find in my Airbnb, I know it's a tour guide but it's full of different places to eat, learn, play, and visit. It's so good I am buying my own copy so I can check them off as I go.
