Touring The Great North – Part 1 – Landing in Boston

I have finally finished editing ALL my pictures and caught up with all my bazillion emails. Now I can start sharing all our fun and fabulous experiences with you.

We flew in and out of Boston, where we met up with our friends Maureen and Milos. Larry and I landed first, with about a 3 to 4 hour gap between flights, so we picked up the rental car and drove around the Boston shores a bit before going back to the airport to pick up Maureen and Milos.

The Boston coastline is beautiful. And the weather was perfect.

We couldn’t go to far or do to much, because we had to go back to the airport, but what we saw was beautiful. After picking up Maureen and Milos, we went back to the rental car company to get them added to the car as drivers. That was another long line, that we had already experienced earlier, and it took awhile once again. But once everything was settled, we drove around some more and saw a few different things, so Maureen and Milos could see some of Boston too. We even saw a wedding taking place at the Yacht Club.

We were staying just across the New Hampshire border, but we wanted to avoid the Boston traffic in the dark, so we headed towards our hotel, thinking we would find a place to eat once we got close to our hotel. You’d think on a Saturday, at only 8:00 PM, that everything would be hoppin’. That’s certainly what we thought, but NO! We tried 3 or 4 different restaurants, that were all closed, before finally just settling on stopping at a Chipotle. Maybe all the restaurants saw 4 tired and hungry tourists coming in and closed up as soon as they saw us coming. 🙂 Maureen and Milos had never been to a Chipotle before, but a made-to-order fast food chain wasn’t in our plans. Oh well, that was the start to our adventures. Many more adventures were yet to come. Travel days are ALWAYS trying and confusing, no matter where you are headed.

Stay tuned. I am just getting started. 🙂 We saw and did so much. I have LOTS to share.

Have a great day and make everyday great. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.
