No picture taken would be allowed in the mansions. That's why I would turn off my camera whenever I entered them.

Some camera shots were kinda tilted. Thanks to the video editing software I used, I could straighten up the picture. Perhaps you can bear with the way I've managed that.

In 2 of the mansions we've visited, we get an Audio Antenna portable media player with headphone so we could take our times listening to the tour. There were a couple of classical pieces I recognized while taking the tour. One was by Schubert (see below) and the other was the 3rd movement of Haydn's "Emperor" Quartet.

After the tour, we checked out the outside of The Breakers.
Later, we went to the Marble House.
This part ends with a little bit of rain and a sign that says "Caution: Wet Floor". :-]
