downtown tour on may 09

wednesdays is ilka days :)

since we both get wednesday afternoons off usually, we like spending time together. this wednesday we went to pier 17 and all the way up to union square. one of our stops on our tour was the delicious milchreis-place "rice to riches" (rice pudding). they had many different flavors such as peach, mango etc... my favorite still is oldschool cinnamon & raisin :)
ps: zur erklaerung: milchreis gibts hier normalerweise gar nicht... ab und zu was seltsames beim chinesischen buffet, aber nich den echten :( )

boston trip 07/05/04 till 06

on saturday morning we went to see a minuteman parade in lexington. it was the annual anniversary of some revolutionary happenings.. well they didn't celebrate it that distinctive... reminded us of carnival ;)

minute man march 1
minute man march 2


mt. auburn cemetery was just gorgeous! usually you expect depressive feelings at cemeteries but this one was just amazing!!! wow just impressive the gravestones some people got...

panorama view with boston skyline

"the garment district" was a really strange experience. in the basement they had piles of secondhand clothing on the floor. you could crawl over/through (i wouldn't recommend crawling under though...) and pick whatever you like. the cashier would weigh your pile and ask you for $1,50 per pound :D we didn't really find anything nice of course, but we had a great time :D loel

sure we visited harvard (cambridge) again :) well and of course we got jealous again! :-/

mhhhhh if you ever get a chance to eat at bertuccis you definitely have to go! i think that was the best italian food i ever had!!!

we tried going whale watching, but when we were already out there a big storm came up. the weather was so bad that EVERYBODY felt terrible (including us).. the crew was walking around giving out paper bags for everyone and made several announcements where to stay on the boat to get better... inside you could either see the water OR the sky - rarely both at the same time.. so the boat had to turn and bring us back :( well we just wasted more than an hour but got our money back and had a skyline view for free ;)

walk for hunger in boston common (we didn't run, but of course we got some of the free ice cream ;) hehe)

swan boat ride in public garden:

meine sylvi :)

wir wollten uns das musical "lion king" ansehn... naja es gab einige komplikationen und missverstaendnisse... letztendlich durften wir es nich sehn und es hat nur fuer ein paar schnappschuesse gereicht :(

i passed the road test!

yeahhh hab meine driving license :)

bin ja beim ersten mal durchgefallen (aber das scheint hier normal zu sein so ca. 1-2 mal durchzufallen) aber grade eben hats geklappt :)
ich hab nur sau ewig gebraucht zum einparken heute :D danach hat der pruefer sein buch zugeklappt und ich hab schon gedacht "damn wieder nix!" seltsamerweise sind wir aber noch weiter gefahrenund er wollte noch n u-turn usw.. hab ich mich schon gewundert, weil ich dachte es waer schon vorbei... aber ich bin wirklich 1A gefahren, und keine angst das einparken klappt normalerweise auch :P
