AUTUMN COLOURS BRIGHTEN ALL OF MASSACHUSETTS<br />

WHERE FALL STAYS JUST A LITTLE BIT LONGER<br />

Massachusetts is awash in colour <strong>from</strong> late September through October as <strong>the</strong> colours stretch<br />

<strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong> mountains <strong>and</strong> hills of <strong>the</strong> Berkshires to <strong>the</strong> lakes <strong>and</strong> oceans of sou<strong>the</strong>astern MA.<br />

Fall is a season not to be missed in Massachusetts so get out <strong>and</strong> take part in <strong>the</strong> culinary<br />

events, festivals, <strong>and</strong> outdoor activities <strong>the</strong> Commonwealth has to offer.<br />

The Massachusetts Office of Travel <strong>and</strong> Tourism (MOTT) has launched a newly enhanced<br />

web page that offers live video feeds of <strong>the</strong> changing leaves <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong> Berkshires to Cape Cod<br />

that can be accessed by visiting www.massvacation.com/scienceNature/fall-foliage.php. The<br />

page also includes scenic drives <strong>and</strong> a fall foliage timetable map that will help visitors plan<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir trip as well as fall activities represented by all <strong>the</strong> regions of <strong>the</strong> State. MOTT also<br />

connects site visitors with <strong>the</strong> Massachusetts Department of Conservation <strong>and</strong> Recreation on<br />

more suggestions on how to get <strong>the</strong> most out of <strong>the</strong> fall foliage season including: scenic<br />

drives to view summit vistas, learn about peaceful walks against colourful foliage backdrops<br />

<strong>and</strong> bike rides amongst falling leaves.<br />
