Yes, the date stamp on this post is correct; it is January 20th. I never did a last post and since I will be printing this blog out I wanted to tie up a few loose ends before it becomes immortalized on the printed page. The post before this one leaves us before we go [...]

Our last morning in Boston! We packed, got ready and headed out on the town. Our extremely friendly Irish concierge checked our bags for us so that we could have a pain free exploration of the city. We walked around Boston common, took pictures of the freshly laid snow, played ball on the blanket covered [...]
Cheers!

Today was our last full day of this crazy adventure. We woke up this morning and had a great (and very cheap) breakfast at Pour Man’s. After a delicious breakfast we headed out to Hahvahd (Harvard). Unfortunately it is winter break for the students there and so consequently no one was on campus to give [...]
Laughs in the city

Ok, so we are taking things a little more low key here in Boston, but that is not to say that we are not having a blast, because believe me you, we have not laughed harder than we have here in Boston! We woke up this morning and got an early start. We bought our [...]

A sense of sadness hung heavy in the air as Devon and I walked down the tilted stairs and out of our NYC hostel. Although we were sad to leave we wee both looking forward to getting to Boston. The train ride to South Station Boston was once again amazing! Today was not all that [...]

Ok, so we are on the train headed to Boston from New York. I had no idea when starting this adventure that I could or would fall in love with the city that houses my enemy (the Yankees), but I did. The city roars, the angry people are actually extremely nice, and we met so [...]
I’ll Be There For You

I am starting this entry with exactly 8 and a half hours left in the Empire State. We spent today almost exclusively in Greenwich Village, but before we headed over there we went to the New York Fire Museum (it was open today). The museum was filled with the rich and long history of firefighting [...]

Laundry was the first order of business today. We both had a pillow case full of clothes that were starting to become an atmospherical danger, so we decided we had better wash them this morning. Spent about 5 bucks for a single load, which wasn’t too bad considering it’s the Upper West Side in NYC. [...]
Reflecting

We talked to a guy named Chris tonight. He is from Austria and is studying to be a mechanical engineer. Although his english is not as strong as he would like it to be, he managed (in the course of our hour long conversation) to remind me of a few things. Thought I would share. [...]
Weather Report; Freezing with a chance of death
Posted in Trip Update on January 4, 2010 | 3 Comments »
I would like to say I am joking but in less words and more numbers that was basically the weather report for the last two days. With the wind chill factor it has dropped below zero several times and there have been winds gusting up to 20-50 miles an hours. Welcome to an east coast [...]
