Finally, after visiting Boston 2 times and not really seeing the city, I was able to go around a little to see the city up close and not from someone’s apartment! I definitely could have spent a lot more time touring, but we’ve got places to go, people to see.
Boston is a really fun city! If you are a history buff, especially an American history person, Boston and Mass are a great place to tour. I wasn’t able to take a formal tour of too many historical areas but I got to see the main parts of Boston that mattered.
We stayed in the Boston University area (Alston), which is across the river from the Harvard area. Yet, I did get some pictures of Harvard. It was a beautiful campus. I was surprised at how many people visit Harvard on any given day. We were there Sunday afternoon and already there were hundreds of people just walking around taking pictures and seeing the historical sites and buildings.
Someday when I am better at photography, I would love to spend a few weeks just going around to take pictures of the city because it’s really another world to me. Houston and Boston differ is just about every way (probably not but it seems so to me).
To those reading this that I was able to meet for brunch on Sunday, glad to have seen y’all again and let’s not make it too long before we can get together again!
We are now in Hartford on our way to New Jersey, where we shall stay a few nights to spend time in NYC! This will be trip number 3 to NYC as well and I’m really looking forward because I actually have a really nice camera to take pictures with! yay!
Oh yeah, I have a downtown shot of Boston at night and will be taking the same kind of shot for NYC so I’m sure people will want to see those pics. Just as soon as I get back to Houston I’ll try to post them to the website for your viewing pleasure (overload!).
