It's a really cute town too. It doesn't take long to see practically all the sites from the movie because they're all within a few blocks of each other, and most of them are right around the main downtown square. My only complaint was that it was FREEZING! I don't remember the last time I was so cold. The wind was blowing and made it feel even worse. We weren't able to stay outside for very long. But we grabbed a few pictures and then had some yummy hot chocolate in a cute little cafe. It made for a fun Saturday excursion!

You guys are always doing such fun adventures. :)
Looks fun. I think I will have to make a day trip down there sometime.
Now there's a random family outing. Looks like you guys had a good time reliving the movie. Do you know that I have tried to watch that movie dozens of times and have never seen more than 5 minutes of it in any one sitting. I know it has a cult following but I can't get it to stick for me. I still think this looks like a fun day out though.
Cheryl, if you like the movie it can be a fun little outing!
Julie, it really is a good movie. You do have to like Bill Murray and enjoy his humor though. Maybe someday you'll finish it and perhaps even enjoy it. If not you won't be alone. I have a couple friends who have never liked it, even after finishing it. The idea of repeating the same day over and over really bugs them.
