Last summer my sister and I drove south from Boston to Rhode Island to watch the Newport Polo Club compete against Brazil.
We arrived in Rhode Island early and spent the morning on the Narragansett beach then had lunch at Monahan's Clam Shack which sits on a small hill above the ocean.

Following lunch we drove out to the polo fields to find an area to spread out our blanket.
The polo crowd arrives early and sets up tents and grills in an elaborate picnic.
