Newport, Downton Abbey and the Winner

Last October I visited Newport with my niece.
It had been 20 yrs since George and I were last there.
Things hadn't changed much.... that was a good thing
but the tour of The Breakers was much better then I remembered 
and it seemed like we were allowed to see more of the rooms 
then before.

I can not watch Downton Abbey without thinking of this summer home of the Vanderbilts called the Breakers.
What an era that was.
