Weekend Getaway: Boston, Day 2

Saturday we spent walking. And shopping. And eating. It was perfection. We started off roaming around the Public Garden. Where we met up with George Washington.

And a statue commemorating the discovery of the effects of Ether at Mass. General Hospital. If only I had a statue for every drug I discovered the effects of (that was a joke father).

From the Public Garden, we headed to Beacon Hill. Where we had a most delectable breakfast at the Beacon Hill Bistro. No joke. Best french toast I have ever consumed. Ever. Tessa was a fan of the crayons. As in, the best crayons she had ever consumed. Ever.

We played in Beacon Hill, walked up and down Charles street, shopped like animals, ate lunch Downtown, then headed back to the hotel.

The State Building. In case that wasn't obvious.

We took a pit stop at the park in the Public Garden to make sure the kids were extra sleepy.

Refreshed from naps, we headed to Newbury street where we feasted on some seriously fanciful food. I had to refrain from licking my clam chowder bowl. Not because I have manners, but because I didn't want to get kicked out before I ate my entree.

We walked off our dinner while salivating into the windows along Newbury, then headed back to the hotel. Where the kids and their father swam. And I watched football on the TV inside the bathroom mirror while Tessa fell asleep.

Then the big kids fell asleep. And Allen went across the street and picked us up some disgustingly delicious Ben and Jerry's. Which we ate in the bathroom. As is our tradition while vacationing with children. Don't stick your nose up at us. They are always super nice bathrooms.

The End of day two.
