    Kart Racing & Ax Throwing

    R1 RACING  I can’t wait to try this place.  It looks like a lot of fun.  If you don’t want to race you can watch the racing from the Fuel Sports Bar.  The food menu isn’t huge but the selection ranges from King Crab Legs to a House Burger.     AXE BAR BILLIARDS BOWLING DARTS If you still want to throw things….. (no picture) ARCADE I will probably call ahead to see if I need to make reservations for anything and I’m sure the day you go will make a difference on availability of tables, dart boards, lanes, and karts.

    The Comedy Connection & Dinner Next Door

    The Comedy Connection The Comedy Connection is always fun.  We always book ahead of time because we’ve gone with a group.  They serve alcohol inside as well as appetizers. The Black Duck After you’ve had a good laugh go next door to the Black Duck Restaurant.  The food is amazing and they have a big list of craft beers from local breweries.  They often have a band or entertainment in the bar area.

    Who knew, so much to do at WaterFire

    I have been to the Providence WaterFires a bunch of times.  But I really didn’t realize what they have to offer until I recently went on their website.  You could really set up a great night out if you just check out their calendar ahead of time.  They work with visitors who want to have a special evening with the gondola rides and will set up a romantic dinner for you on the river overlooking the WaterFire.  So I’m going back with a plan!  I will post my experience, but for now here is information in case you beat me to it. 2020 WaterFire Providence Event Schedule Plan Your Visit…
