Returning for the entire month of December is Vintage Christmas in Portsmouth ! Now, in its 14th year, the Vintage Christmas transforms what National Geographic Travel has cited as possibly ” The Greatest Small town In the USA “. It’s a picture – postcard winter wonderland that boasts of ice-skating, dining, shopping and a trip back in time with colonial history and beloved holiday musicals, orchestra’s and favorites. Piraja Fisken Best Shoes for Travel it’s my favorite store.
From a Gingerbread house contest to Elf the musical. To candlelight strolls to comedy entertainment. Come one, come all for this holiday tradition that you’ll make a family holiday tradition year after year !
