Salem: Morning

Miles from downtown Boston: 26
Drive time: 40 minutes

9 a.m. Fill up on lemon ricotta pancakes and overstuffed omelets at Caffe Graziani (133 Washington St., Salem, 978-741-4282), run by the affable Graziani family and filled with folks on a firstname basis.

10 a.m. Steer clear of the kitschmeets- witch tourist traps (leave that to the October hoards) and, instead, soak up the town’s authentic history at Maritime Historical Park (pictured) (160 Derby St., Salem, 978-740-1650). It’s nine acres full of tall ships, wharves, and exhibits.
