For the first time in 3 years we're not going to Europe for vacation. This is bittersweet but with it being my first year post-graduate school we just didn't have the amount of time available for an overseas trip. {We're hoping to resume our European explorations next year though}. Instead, we've decided on a wonderful location here in the good ol' USA and I'm beyond excited to visit this wonderful place. Can you guess where we're headed?
Hint #1: We're staying in this Greek Revival Mansion built in 1848.

Hint #2: We'll be visiting America's oldest landscape gardens at this place.

Hint #3: I'll be downing a few Dramamine before we board this beauty to sail around the harbor where the Civil War began.

Hint #4: Definitely gonna eat one of these bad boys from the one of the city's most famous bakeries {Williams-Sonoma carries their mixes}.

Hint #5: In 1718 Edward Teach laid siege on the city; in 2011 David and I will.
Any guesses?
