Sophie Road Trip

First stop on our recent road trip with Sophie was a return trip to Mystic Aquarium in Mystic, Connecticut. When she was a toddler, one of the books I kept in the car for her to look at was about Arctic animals; the beluga whale was particularly eye-catching. Sophie was 3 1/2 the first time we went to see the belugas at the Mystic Aquarium.

Since it was August 26th, Women’s Equality Day, the day in 1920 women finally won the right to vote, we toured Marble House, Alva Smith Vanderbilt Belmont’s mansion where she held lavish fundraisers for suffrage. In the gift shop, Sophie picked out a “Vote for Women” button to pin to her backpack.
