Sea Shore New Hampshire

New Hampshire has seventeen miles of sea shore so we decided to take a tour yesterday. We went to Portsmouth, Rye Harbor and other sea towns.

We stopped at a local restaurant and had lobster bisque and drove back to Newport. The shore is about a two hour drive from Newport, New Hampshire.
