New York Trip

So I know I'm totally horrible at updating my blog but here is the other half of our Boston trip. After Boston we went to the big apple and did everything our feet would let us do. It was a lot of walking. But we went on this 6 hour walking tour that was given by a local and he just had so much knowledge of New York it was unbelievable he was so fun to listen to. We went to some fun restaurants, hung out in times square, and did some shopping of course. The highlight for me was probably Wicked! It was so amazing I only wish we could have seen more than one broadway show while we were there because it was so worth it! Then of course the Statue of Liberty was awesome. We did the audio tour on Liberty Island and it was fun to hear more about her history and the history of our early settlers in the US. My only advice about New York is don't go in the summer!! I don't handle humidity very well and it was so hot and humid I really thought I was going to die! Especially down underground in the subways you really feel like you are going to suffocate its not very fun! So go in the fall or spring you will be happier that way!

Boston Trip!!

Josh's dream vacation finally came true and we got to go to Boston to see the Red Sox play! I have never seen someone be so in love with something in my life! He was on cloud nine and I could hardly get him away from that stadium! It was so fun to be there at Fenway. We got to take a tour of the stadium and go up on the Green Monster and watch batting practice and everything it was awesome. We of course spent a lot of time at the store on Yawkey Way and bought some fun merchandise. And then of course we stayed for the game it was amazing to be there. Boston is such a fun city too we got to take a segway tour of the city and it was probably the most fun thing I have ever done! If you ever go on vacation and they have segway tours where you are going do it! Those are such a blast and it was so fun to learn the history of Boston. There is so much cool history back east!
