Beach Holidays and Time Travel

As I said, we like exploring the local pastry shops and coffee houses much more than having breakfast at the hotel.
Today our choice is a provincial-charming bakery with incredibly delicious home-made donuts, cakes and pastries. I really like the carrot cake, you can also order some takeout brownies to have a snack during the day.

One more place for lovers of childhood retro films. And which one from the Disney movie 'Hocus Pocus' witches is your favorite?
Honestly, we got there not only to take cute pictures with a cinema witch house, but also to visit the village of the first settlers, located across the road in the park. But, unfortunately, some filming took place on our visit to the village, and it was closed for visitors. Perhaps when you decide to visit Salem, the shooting will be over, and you could enjoy the atmosphere of the seventeenth century. By the way, you can find all the necessary information about attendance on the village official web-site.
Note, that the Hocus Pocus House is closed on the weekend.

After we failed to visit the village of the first settlers, the locals advised us to go to The Rebecca Nurse Homestead.
When the characters of horror movies are advised to visit an old house outside the city, it makes you wary. But that doesn't. A trip to this museum of living history is fascinating and informative. Yesterday was one of those fun days, and today allows learning more about the true story of Salem, including being in the house where witches trials were held in the seventeenth century.
Note, that the museum is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.

A nice place for fast food lovers. Burger and sandwich fillings have not been lacking there, and the fillings are very different, from smoked beef to seafood. And if you are a fan of proper nutrition, enjoy a large selection of soups and salads.

You can't help falling in love with this beach: clean, spacious, with gorgeous panoramic views, it is definitely worth a visit.

Another place that will make you feel like a time traveler in a settlement of the seventeenth century. Here you can watch how iron is melted and tools, dishes and other authentic utensils are made.
We were lucky to get there just before closing without checking the working hours. For your information: you can visit the place from May to November, on any day except Monday and Tuesday, from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm.

Having dinner at Mission on the Bay, take a table by the window, the view here is simply excellent. The restaurant serves delicious mussels and some of the best tacos I've ever tried. If you are lucky, and it is not your turn to drive a car, try more than one drink from the bar menu.

Time flies when you're having fun, and tomorrow we go home. It has been a cool time in mysterious places, the next time we decide to go to strange places, we’ll go to the Winchester Mystery House.
