The unexpected weekend

It was unexpectedly great. Who would have thought? Not me! I guess it is important to open up to people every once in a while. I really was shocked that I enjoyed myself....I hope we do it again sometime in the future.

Boston

I arrived last night and was shocked by how warm the city was and I felt at home right away! I really like it here. Last night we took the "T" to the North End and enjoyed some delicious pizza and then waited in line for some pastries from Mike's Pastry. We walked back and wandered along the perimeter of the Boston Common and saw the cemetery where John Adams, Sam Adams, Paul Revere and some other historical people are buried. We also went down Newbury where all of the shopping is at.......Sarah and Katie were good tour guides and I enjoyed the walk.

Today we woke up and headed to the bagel shop near Boston University. There are sooo many young people here! We were very close to Fenway Park and there were tons of people on their way to the game. The city is really beautiful and it is not too overwhelming....the people are casual and it seems like anything goes. Now I am going to go and try to take a run....Markus called and I figured I better try to work off the pizza I ate!
