{Travel} Providence, Rhode Island

We stayed in Providence for one night on our way up to visit College Girl in Boston.
 Must fuel up on some caffeine along the way!
 We'd been to Providence a few times for college visits but hadn't explored the city too much.
Mr. Click had a meeting so I struck out on my own for the afternoon.
 I headed to their downtown area.
 

Providence is very walkable and full of charm.

 

I had fun stopping in the cute shops and admiring the old and new architecture.



 Love me some old doors!
 Providence is home to eight colleges and universities so it's definitely a college town.

 It truly is the Renaissance City!
 That night we went to the Federal Hill neighborhood (their version of Little Italy) for dinner.
 We had dinner at Zooma Trattoria.


I chose Zooma because it had some good vegan options (I had the pasta with roasted veggies and pesto).  Everything was excellent there!
After dinner we walked down by the water. I would love to come back in the summer for an authentic Venetian gondola ride and to see the Water Fire show.

Hi Heather, I love this blog post you did on Providence Rhode Island. We love when we go on weekends to visit my daughter at college. It's such a fun city and we love to explore all the shops and restaurants there. We hope to explore more of Rhode Island this summer! Julie
