"I don't know if I'll like Boston," he said. He mused that it may just be too cold and too unlike Houston for his tastes. Nevermind that going to somewhere completely unlike Houston is the entire point of taking a vacation.
You see, aside from a trip to Mexico when he was a wee lad, Boyfriend has never been on vacation outside of the Lone Star State. That is, until we went to Boston. The city must've charmed him a great deal because now he understands why people love to travel. Now he understands why people get excited when they book a flight and plan an itinerary. Now he's whole-heartedly on-board with my plan to whisk us away to Australia next year. Woohoo!
Here's a quick summary of all that we did on our trip:
We went shopping on Newbury street --
We went whale-watching for four hours... and saw nothing --
(aside from a few lighthouses, that is)
We ate a lot --
We explored the North End, along with several other great Boston neighborhoods --
Then, we flew home --
We were promptly greeted by a very grumpy goldfish who was peeved that he didn't get to come along. Apparently, merely having a friend come over to keep him fed and entertained wasn't enough for our finicky goldfish. This one wants to travel --
I was happy to be back in Houston's warm weather, though, after bundling up for Boston's 40-degree spring.
