While we were in Connecticut, we took a day trip to Boston to see the sights and meet up with Jesse's brother Matthew for dinner. We checked out Cambridge first, and our first stop was, naturally, to Dewey Cheetham & Howe a/k/a Car Talk Plaza a/k/a where the magic of car talk is made. (If you click on the picture to enlarge it, you can see "Dewey Cheetham & Howe" in gold letters on the top right window).
We then moved on to the more traditional sights found in Harvard Square . . .
and discovered that all of the really pretty buildings there are all churches.
In Boston, we spent some time on the seaport enjoying the views and the breeze. We also happen to come across a
yacht that we decided we MUST have on the spot. Notice why? (Hint: there is a
helicopter pad, complete with a helicopter perched elegantly on the already-
luxurious vessel).
We saw other beautiful boats too (love the old sailboat in this picture).
After that, Matthew took us out to have lovely seafood (the best raw oysters Jesse has tasted -- I passed) and delectable
cannolis. Before all of that, however, Matthew dragged us all around the city (to see the old market and old expensive mansions and the old jail that is now turned into a fancy hotel), which was all well and good, except that he severely under-estimated the distances we had to walk and after walking all day my feet were DYING! Therefore, I was far too tired to take pictures of any of that and we
ultimately took a cab back. Matthew is now certain that I am crazy, but I am equally convinced that it is he who is insane.
