Morning Stretch

It has been a while since my last post. I hope everyone is doing well! I am a little more than half way done with my internship and things have gotten very busy. On a recent trip to Boston, my husband and I went to the New England Aquarium. This octopus was one of the exhibits and I thought he was so cool! There were some other awesome sea animals there as well which I will post later. If you haven't been to this aquarium, I highly recommend it. It gets pretty busy, but it is certainly a fun place to visit. More to come soon!

Boston Reviews

Mike's Pastry is a delicious italian bakery in the North End of Boston.  One of my favorite spots to visit.  I highly recommend the chocolate chip cannoli.  It is the best I have ever had.  The marzipan is also excellent.  The last picture is of a building in Faneuil Hall Market Place, also known as Quincy Market.  It is located in downtown Boston and has lots of fun shops, restaurants and bars.  If you are in the mood for chinese food at a restaurant that then turns into a bar with dancing and scorpion bowls to share then I recommend the Hong Kong.

"Make Way For Ducklings"

I don't usually post book reviews, but I just love this one!  It is a children's book called "Make Way For Ducklings" by Robert McCloskey. This book was first published in 1941 and describes how a family of Mallard ducks grows up in Boston's Public Gardens.  It has actually become Massachusetts State Children's Book.  Growing up in MA I always loved going to the Public Gardens and visiting the ducklings.  While I was in Boston last week, I visited them again!  For more information, check out this link:

Photos from Boston

I know that I have not posted new photographs for a long time, but it has been a very busy month!  I moved to a new city and also went on a vacation to one of my favorite cities (if not my number one favorite) in this county.  Boston is beautiful, and now that the Big Dig is over, it is even more beautiful.  Check out my pictures!

Shots of Fall Continued

Here are some more shots that I took a few years ago during October.  The one below is from the Arboretum in Boston.  The one above is from a road in northern Vermont.  I'm not sure how I feel about either of them. They could have come out a bit better.  I think I would like the top one if it were brighter and the bottom if it were a bit more in focus.  Let me know if you have any suggestions!

Shots of Fall

I love the fall in the North East.  This first picture was taken in the Boston Arboretum during one October.  More fall pictures to come!
