BOSTON VISIT
Our trip to one of the oldest establishments in America was a huge success. It started on Thursday with a drive to Buffalo to catch a Jet Blue flight to Boston and although there was a short delay because of storms on the east coast, the moment we landed the clouds lifted. We had beautiful sunshine and warm temperatures the whole time there.
A fitting finale, t
his moonlight sunset of the bay was taken the eve before our departure. We spent our days touring and learning many historical things about the area and the development of New England and the states.
Being in the US over the 9/11 weekend gave us a glimpse of the seriousness of security measures implemented all around the city to ensure safety for all. And we met tourists from around the world along our way, all delighted to be visiting this educational hub boasting 52 higher learning institutions that attract top students from around the globe in droves each September. We took some time to tour MIT and Harvard just to get a glimpse of these institutions.
Though brief we truly enjoyed our stay more than we had anticipated.
i love boats on water and sun rise or sunset makes them even better. glad you had a great time
ReplyDeleteNice picture! Glad your visit, although short, was so enjoyable.
ReplyDeleteSometimes short visits are the best. You savour all the good things and don't have time for anything else.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you had such good weather. It really makes all the difference to be walking around in sunshine and warmth, rather than rain. LOL!
Your picture of the boats on water is lovely, and you caught the light perfectly!
Welcome home.
What a great picture of the moon over the boats in the water!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had great weather and a lovely visit!
Thank you for visiting America. (That sounds a little odd to me. Don't think I've ever said those words, but, given our current public profile, I'm not sure I'd want to visit here, myself, and we need all the good press we can get.)
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you had a nice visit and the moon light setting was lovely. Thank you for coming by.
ReplyDeleteBoston is one of my favorite cities. I used to travel there a lot on business, and I've strolled that place to death.
ReplyDeleteWonderful picture.
Sounds as if you had a marvelous time. I love Boston and hope to visit it more often as family has moved there recently. Isn't it fun to experience other places?
ReplyDeleteMy daughter was in Boston last month. She liked that the buildings are older than they are in Oregon.
