A bit more Boston...

We loved Boston!!! All I could think of was how much I wished we could live there for a time (a short time, but still a time :)). Of course, I felt the same way about Maine, BUT, we did love Boston. With the exception of the driving (which Nathan did super well - it would stress me out) the city was great. We did parts of the Freedom Trail (depending on moods and nap times :)) and just enjoyed being in the city.
When we first arrived in Boston we forgot how cash based many things in the city still are... including balloon making clowns! Therefore, when all of the other children got balloon creations during the party, poor Evie did not because we had no cash. :p She handled it quite bravely but we could tell a $3 balloon would go a long way in her life. ;) So, the next day we made sure we had cash when we went downtown and we found a very funny clown to make her a lovely flower. She was beyond pleased and this flower was her constant companion the rest of the day and much of the time in Boston. :)
  
Enjoying the lovely streets and fun shops...
Strolling around Harvard until half of us fell asleep... :)
Had delicious dinners with horrible service in little Italy (Nathan got his food 40 minutes before mine came...)

Climbed Bunker Hill...

And had a marvelous time exploring the USS Constitution - both the ship and the museum. The museum was very hand on - perfect for two little girls. I think we spent half our time there in the kitchen. :)
  
We can't wait until our next visit! Maybe once the girls are a little older. :)
