FALL-ing in love with New England one leaf at a time 🍂 🍎🍁
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Last year, I took my dream trip to New England to experience some exquisite leaf-peeping and all of the fall things with my mom and son and it was truly one of the most magical trips I’ve taken.
I did a ton of research and scoured the internet for the best of the best when it comes to fall foliage, farms, orchards, scenic drives, tasty eateries, cozy inns, and picturesque towns. And I want to pass that knowledge onto you!
If you’ve been dreaming of a trip across New England during the fall season, I created a New England travel guide and map, including my itinerary, a packing list, and a downloadable map of the region.
Let me know below with ‘MAP’ and I’ll make sure to send it your way.

Here’s how we spent a weekend in Philadelphia #MarriottHotelsPartner
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
We were lucky enough to stay at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown, located right in the heart of the city! From there, we made sure to see the best the city had to offer families:
🥞 Breakfast at The Pantry (inside the Marriott!)
🖐️ Please Touch Museum
🔔 The Liberty Bell + Independence Hall
🍲 Lunch at Reading Terminal Market
💦 Splash time at Sister Cities Park
🧬 Visit the Franklin Institute
🏮 Chinese Lantern Festival in Franklin Square (annual summer event)
There’s so much for families to do in Philadelphia and being a Marriott Bonvoy member makes it so much more accessible.
From the location to having toddler amenities on-hand and staff who actually understand what traveling with a toddler is like — it’s those small comforts that make a huge difference on family trips.
Thank you for the stay @MarriottHotels!

We recently had the chance to visit Philadelphia and what better way to explore one of our most historic American cities than staying in the heart of it all at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown?? #MarriottHotelsPartner
After spending a few days in this city, here’s what I recommend:
✔️ Enjoy a comfy stay at Philadelphia Marriott Downtown
✔️ Bowl a round at Liberty Lanes at Marriott
✔️ Check out the Please Touch Museum
✔️ Absorb history at The Liberty Bell and Independence Hall
✔️ Grab a traditional Philly cheesesteak (and other treats) at Reading Terminal Market
✔️ Cool off at Sister Cities Park
✔️ Discover the Franklin Institute
✔️ Marvel at the Chinese Lantern Festival
✔️ Dinner at Dandelion
What else should we make note of for next time?
Traveling with my mini around this historic city was such a blast. Thank you for the stay @MarriottHotels and for providing us with a comfy stay and a memorable experience!

I wanted to make history come alive for Ollie and what better place than in Philadelphia, USA? #MarriottHotelsPartner

Our stay at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown created the perfect opportunity to really explore the heart of this historical city. From the Liberty Bell to Franklin Square, we really dove into the heart and culture of Philadelphia.
After a day of exploring, we were treated with some of Philadelphia’s finest delicacies at Marriott’s Thirteen Restaurant.
We stayed cool on our trip by bowling a few games at Liberty Lanes, the hotel’s on-site, retro bowling alley. Did I mention there was even an arcade??
And after a long day, we were soothed by the many comforts and amenities Marriott has to offer.
Traveling with little ones isn’t always easy, but being a Marriott Bonvoy member truly
makes it so much smoother.
From comfy cribs already in the room to friendly staff who actually get what traveling with a toddler is like, Marriott Hotels takes so much stress off our trips. It’s the little things that make a big difference when you’re on the go with a little one!
Thank you for the stay @MarriottHotels!
