Last week, we took advantage of the long weekend (Rosh Hashanah) to extend our annual trip to MA, to include Boston. We picked up Caroline on the way, and spent the late afternoon in Harvard. The campus was beautiful, as was the weather, and we had a great time seeing the sites, even when Tom Green<\/a> heckled Caroline. We met Helen in the evening to have some great ice cream at Christina’s, and left the 3 girls with her, while Mama & Papa stayed the night in a nearby hotel.<\/p>\n

The next morning we met Helen, Melinda (another TKDr) and the girls for breakfast at Friendly Toast in Cambridge (very<\/strong> retro decor, like way back when Papa was a kid \ud83d\ude42 )\u00c2\u00a0 then headed on to the Freedom Trail<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 It was a lot of walking – from Boston Commons to Old North Church – but the girls were troopers. We treated ourselves to some great food, like CHOWDA @ Quincy Market, and pastries @ Mike’s Pastries, then finished the trail at the new Holocaust Memorial, which was a very moving experience for all.\u00c2\u00a0 We took the “T” back to the car, and left to get back for Liz’s b-day celebration.\u00c2\u00a0 The next day, the girls hung out with Caroline & Elizabeth creating some movies<\/a>, and Mama & Pap went on to the TKD event<\/a>.<\/p>\n
