Focus Human Performance

Summer is right around the corner, and you may be thinking to yourself, "What am I going to do with myself for three months?" Well, here is a short list of ideas of places to go and activities to do over vacation to keep you busy.

1. Castle Island

Castle Island is located in South Boston on the harbor. There are tours of the historical fort, a playground, a grilling area and a lot of space for bike riding, roller blading, or walking. The best day involves getting an ice cream and hotdog from Sullivan’s.

2. Narragansett, Rhode Island

Narragansett Town beach is known for its large waves and beautiful scenery. There are shops and many restaurants to explore. Personally, my favorite thing to eat is crab cakes at Iggy’s Doughboys and Chowder House and then get a large waffle cone at Brickley’s Ice Cream shop.

3. Six Flags

Because who doesn’t love riding roller coasters!

4. Martha’s Vineyard

Fun things to do in the Vineyard include bike riding, visiting the beach, visiting the gingerbread houses and eating great seafood (my favorite).

 

5. York Beach, Maine

There are three main beaches with shops, amusements, a playground, a zoo and multiple restaurants. Their beaches are known for their beautiful sunsets and sunrises. One great place to stop is the Golden Rod where you can watch the making of salt-water taffy.

6. Fenway Park

A great night includes going to Boston to watch the Red Sox and enjoying a Fenway Frank!

7. Mystic Aquarium

Mystic Aquarium is a mostly outdoor aquarium. There are a lot of touch tanks, sea lions, whales, penguins, rays, and other fish.

8. Bretton Woods, New Hampshire

Bretton Woods is a resort located on Mount Washington. It has the longest zip lining canopy tour in New England. The resort also has a golf course, horseback riding, a spa, rock climbing wall, and many more summer fun activities.

9. Old Orchard Beach, Maine

Old Orchard Beach includes mini golf, fireworks, concerts, fairs, carnival rides and food, and a long boardwalk on the beach.

10. Canobie Lake Park

Located in Salem, New Hampshire, is an amusement park with live entertainment, water attractions and a scenic sky ride. It also has picnic areas and many food options.

To summarize, there are some great things to do in New England over summer break. There are endless activities and places to go. There's never an excuse to be bored!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
