Steal my fall New England itinerary for Vermont and New Hampshire 🍂. We started our trip in southern, VT and you can always switch things around. I created this to have a good balance of visiting charming towns and to be outside in nature. Day 1 Manchester, VT- visit covered bridges, Northshire bookstore, the Dutton Farmstand, The Lincoln Family Home, take scenic drive through the Green Mountains Day 2 Woodstock, VT- Sugarbush Farms, Billings Farm and Museum, Mon Vert Cafe, Woodstock Inn and Re

Passengers had to wade off the Isle of Wight's new £4m floating bridge when it broke down this morning, just a day after coming into service. It follows issues during the first crossings yesterday, when some vehicle bumpers scraped the slipway as they were driven on and off the vessel.
