We've been going to Block Island every summer for three years now, and on my most recent visit, I was lucky enough to run into an old friend who has had a summer house there since the early '80s. So of course, I had to pick her brain on insider island ideas. She told us about Payne's doughnuts (on Payne's Dock) overlooking the marina, where Mom and Dad can have a bagel while the kids can have their choice of cinnamon sugar, powdered sugar, or plain doughnuts.
Best of all, when they're done, you can tie a piece of bacon to a long string and do some crabbing. We had never done that before, and I was surprised to see how easily my kids took to it. The most fun for them was the end, when the girls tipped over the bucket of crabs they caught, and watched them race to the side of the dock to jump back in.
