Home Sweet Home

Well I am home from Boston and I made it back in one piece…well a pretty tired piece that is. Since I was there for such a short period of time I never adjusted to the three hour time difference, plus I went out every night I was there and stayed up Pretty late and had to get up pretty early every morning. I am hoping to get to bed early tonight to catch up on some sleep. If you have never been to Boston it is a pretty cool city and I would recommend you visit. It is such an old city that it has a lot of history. The buildings were so old and it was neat to see Brownstone’s for homes since that is not something I am use to. The roadways were pretty tiny which made me realize I could never drive in that city. If I ever did I would be an insurance companies dream because they would make a lot of money off of me. I was able to see the popular Newbury street which has all the great shops and a few restaurants. I went to the North End two nights in a row with a group of people for dinner and drinks. The North End is like a Little Italy. There are a ton of Italian restaurants and bakeries there. It was just a neat area to even walk around as it kind of looked fake…like a movie set. Let me tell you the cobblestone streets made it very difficult to walk in heels. I didn’t know everything was in cobblestone or I wouldn’t have gone out in heels. Don’t worry I was a trooper and managed to get by…I just walked a little slower than everyone else. By the way everyone walks there. It’s great! If I lived there I wouldn’t even own a car as I would either walk or use the subway system. The food was absolutely amazing at this restaurant we ate at last night called Pezza. If you are ever in Boston I would highly recommend it. Pezza is a really nice Italian restaurant. I got the halibut and it was amazing. Probably one of the best dishes I have ever had. The locals would crack me up with their thick accents. I am not use to that around Phoenix. I would have to say that my short trip to Boston was pretty cool and I had a GREAT time. I am glad to be home though where it’s 93 degrees outside.
