The &#8220;seaport&#8221; is actually a museum spread out over several acres along the waterfront. Without paying to get in (which we chose not to do today), it&#8217;s hard to get any really good shots of the ships and such, but we did what we could.

Nice place to spend a day if you&#8217;re ever in the area, though.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"thumbnail\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bimmermail.com\/mystic\/mystic1.JPG\" title=\"Ship and ferry from museum entrance.\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"129\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bimmermail.com\/mystic\/mystic1.JPG\" alt=\"Ships\" height=\"96\" \/><\/a> <a rel=\"thumbnail\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bimmermail.com\/mystic\/mystic2.JPG\" title=\"Another view.\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"129\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bimmermail.com\/mystic\/mystic2.JPG\" alt=\"Ships\" height=\"96\" \/><\/a> <a rel=\"thumbnail\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bimmermail.com\/mystic\/mystic3.JPG\" title=\"One of the museum buildings.
