Friday we went and visited the Castle in the Clouds in Moultonborough, NH.  It’s funny how you can live somewhere, but never actually visit any of the attractions until you have visitors from out of state.  We had never been until today.

Other than a very bumpy ride,  it was much more than we expected!  We visited the Pebble, a scenic overlook, a waterfall, rode a trolley, toured this amazing home, fed fish, saw horses and had a really nice picnic.  There are several hiking trails and horseback riding also available there.

We went in 2 cars with 6 children and no one was bored!  The kids had a lot of fun.  The tour is basically an orientation and then you are left to visit at your own speed.  There are volunteers throughout the Castle to answer questions.  The kids were all given a scavenger  of items or questions to answer throughout the Castle … and were rewarded with a prize if they found them all.  We were there much longer than I expected and we’ll definitely be back to check out the hiking trails.
