Mystic Seaport


Sender: Tumblecat
Mystic Seaport, Mystic, Connecticut


Tumblecat writes that Mystic Seaport is a living history museum where people who work there act like it is the 1850's (no cars!). 

I read further that Mystic Seaport is an authentic 19th-century seafaring village featuring more than 30 old trade shops and businesses, which are not replicas but actual historic buildings. There is also a shipyard, where real ships are being built or antique ones being restored and a preserved whaling ship.

I wish I can visit this indoor/outdoor museum to feel what it's like stepping back in time in America!


I love Gregory Peck as Atticus Finch!
