Nik stands in one of the fabulous mansions of Newport. Not sure which one. One of the expensive ones?

Newport is also home to the International Basketball Hall of Fame.

A skywriter went over our heads at some point, spurring this panorama advertising Mohegan Sun casino.

The Newport Art Museum gets a whole lot nicer.

Nik, a Chinese person, scans the fort at Touro Park for telltale signs of Chineseness. She came up empty.

Dan stands on Cliffwalk, a nice walking trail along--what else? A cliff.

Nik stands along the edge of Cliffwalk.

Nik watches Dan cross the finish line, having knocked over several toddlers and elderly women to get this prime spot.

The actual route is prettier than this map lets on. See below!
