A Tour of Boston

Having a visitor in town is a good excuse to get out and do things in Boston (even if the temperature happens to be stifling and the weather is humid). Which is exactly what happened this past weekend. I was lucky enough to have a house guest for a few days - my godparents’ daughter, Jen (or, as she likes to call herself, my “cousin.” With the air quotes.)

And what did we do? Nearly everything!

We ate sausage and pepper sandwiches and Italian ice as we walked through the Common and watched kids splashing in the Frog Pond.

We visited the Public Garden to see the swan boats and take pictures of flowers for a design project Jen is working on.

We went to Harpoon Brewery, but, unfortunately, missed out on a tour.

We went to the movies, walked around Boston, and shopped on Newbury Street, at the Pru, and in Copley Place.

We ate in the North End and at Top of the Hub. (Look at Fenway on the left!)

We also walked around, shopped, and ate in Cambridge.

And now, of course, we nap.
