We went to Providence for a couple of days during April Vacation, we didn't have any specific plans other than to visit the Roger Williams Zoo. We just figured we could explore once we were there. It turned out to be a very good couple of days.
On Sunday, we visited Battleship Cove in Fall River, Mass. We saw a flyer for this place and decided to check it out. I was very cool. If I didn't have kids tugging to keep moving to the next set of cannons I could have spent a lot of time there looking and reading. They have a Battleship, Destroyer, Submarine and a Russian Missile ship on display for tour. It is all self-guided and all of the boats are tied together at port and you have free range on where to go.
Monday was spent at the zoo and the large park area surrounding the zoo. All of this area is named after Roger Williams (Founder of Rhode Island). The zoo was great, there were giraffes, elephants, zebras, camels, buffalo, eagles, penguins. It was very busy but amazingly wasn't so small it couldn't handle the crowd.
Following the zoo we paddled around in some swan boats in the park and walked different areas of the park.
This is outside the Hasbro World Headquarters in Pawtucket. There is nothing to do here except take you picture with possibly the worlds largest Mr. Potato Head
