Going to Connecticut tonight...

[SeattleEd]

...and will be in Mystic. Can anyone recommend some sites and places? More so for collectibles and such? Cool art places? Really good food and wine? Historical places? We will be renting a car so we are mobile.

Thank you in advance, good people.

Cheers!

Mystic Aquarium is cool

Also, there's a Chinese buffet right off 95 that's super good.

That Aquarium sounds fun. I'll check that out. Thanks, Mikey!

If it's your bag, don't forget Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun casinos are very close too.

I'll be at Foxwoods on Friday night. There are several nice restaurants there as well as a comedy club and shopping too. Got tix to see comedian Brian Regan at the MGM. Mystic aquarium and seaport is nice as well. I haven't been back there since the kids were small. If you have a car you're only about 45 minutes from Providence RI too. There's an IMAX theater there at the Providence Place Mall.

True story, I went to a Subway in Mystic about 10 years ago and they didn't carry ketchup packets - only mayo.

They acted like I was gross for wanting to put ketchup on a steak sandwich

Definitely won't be hitting up any subway. But good to know.

Foxwoods. Good to know. Might check out the restaurants there tomorrow.

We plan on doing local things tomorrow and Sunday. Saturday is a wedding. What is the weather gonna be like this weekend? I checked weather.com but not very accurate from my experience. Prefer to hear from locals.

I have family that lives near Boston. We like to stop at this little spot called Super Duper Weenie off of exit 24 on 95. The guys that run it graduated from a culinary school in the 90's and make everything from scratch. We took Brick Mantooth with us on our last visit in 2011.
