I’ve been visiting Providence for three years but this is my first walking tour. This is the best way to see the buildings, skyline and clouds.

My journey began from this tiny airport. The pilot (no attendant aboard) warned all 9 passengers it would be a rough trip. It was! I tried to remain calm with knitting and music as the plane dropped, pitched and yawed. Then when we landed he said it was better than expected. Holy cow. The plane was so small, one passenger sat in the co-pilot seat (and chatted way too much with the pilot) and they weighed us and told me I had to sit in the back. My seat mate was ashen green when she got off the plane. Maybe if I eat a lot this trip, I can be co-pilot.
