Instead of going to Clark's and watching Bears embarrass themselves, go to the Squam Lake Natural Science Center. At least you can see animals in more of a native and dignified atmosphere. It's a good walk and healthy exercise.
And why stop at just one ice cream place. There are multiple spots around the lake. I would try each one. My car always seems to have a steering problem when one comes into view. I really need to get my car looked at. And it is starting to lean to the left for some reason too....
Take the train in Meridith, Ride the Mount, mini golf at Pirates Cove. (We went last night. No one there on a Tuesday afternoon had the place pretty much to ourselves....)
