Boston!!

I have just celebrated my 26th Birthday and every year I usually try to go on a road trip, or some kind of excursion. This year I was pondering what to do, what to do!  We all know that I have been to New York City, many times, I was meant to live there I swear. Anyway, this time around I said I want to see a big city, and possibly a water view as well. I went to Toronto last year so that was out, I am going to New York next weekend, so that's out. I thought to myself, where can I go that is withing driving distance and that I have never been to?  BOSTON, its like a light bulb went off in my head! But wait, its kinda far... O well I will just get up early, right??? YES!  So we got up at 5 am and headed out for the 6 hour drive to Boston. The drive was easy, smooth and very scenic. I would definitely do it again. We got in around 11am. It was so exciting.

We were greeted by a beautiful sunrise....


While stopped at a rest stop I noticed the beautiful landscaping. This is what I want around my deck to look like. I need to get workin!!!



After a few rest stops, we finally got into Boston!


And after we found where to park, which was very easy but VERY pricey. We were off, to enjoy the day!

They have trolly tours, duck boats, child sailing, HUGE yachts, a ton of churches, great shopping, amazing food and very friendly people. An all around great city, and a bonus... smaller than New York and MUCH easier to drive through!


Newberry Street...


While in Bost you have to have a Lobster...


Beautiful Scenery....

Big Boats...
Big Park...

After lunch we decided to take a drive along the ocean, you know Cape Cod. One of the most beautiful places in the coutry...  We didnt get very far because we had a limited amount of time. But we stopped at a placed called Nahant Beach. I still don't know how to say the name :(
It was really pretty, very low tide...

And lastly a beautiful sunset.....



All in all, I had a great time. It was a very loooooooooog day. But so worth it. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Have a great weekend!!!!
