Portsmouth, New Hampshire

If you've never been to Portsmouth I heartily recommend it. It's a quaint little town with a vital waterfront housing lots of shops, bars, and very good restaurants. We had dinner at a place called Black Trumpet and it was lovely-exposed brick, cooper table tops, impeccable service and terrific food. All that AND a top notch martini-well, 'nuff said. It's quite small and I made reservations well in advance :-)
