Weekend in Groton/Mystic, CT

Dear Diary Readers, 

    On March 10th, I took a weekend trip to eastern CT with my mother and aunt. We chose to stay in Groton, CT to be near Mystic. Although it was too cold to go to a beach during the winter, there were still different activities. 

    On Friday (3/10), when we arrived in Groton, my mother and aunt went to an Italian restaurant, and I went to Regal Waterford in Waterford, CT for a movie date. This was the first time we met in person since we had been texting for several months. We chose to watch Creed 3 since the trailer looked nice. The movie itself turned out to be cool, Michael B. Jordan and Johnathan Majors did a terrific job with their acting. As for the guy, he was very kind and I was glad we got to hang out. We want to see each other again sometime soon. 

    On Saturday (3/11), my mother, aunt, and I started off the morning by eating at breakfast The Shack in Groton, CT. Afterward, we spent the day shopping at Olde Mistick Village in Mystic, CT. There are many shops, cafes, and restaurants to check out. We got hot chocolate and coffee drinks at Deviant. They are known for their creative donuts and delicious drinks. Some of the shops we went to were Irish Eyes, Sticky Situations, and Extra Virgin Oil Store. 

    On Sunday (3/12), we spent half the day in Mystic again before driving back home. Overall, this weekend trip was lowkey and fun. Relaxing trips like these can be the best. 

    Comment down below if you've been to Mystic or have any other recommendations on what to do in the area. I'll see you all in next week's post. 

Sincerely,

Jasmine
