Not All Who Wander Are Lost

Before I go into Sunday's adventures in Boston, let me just say GO HEELS! Last night we went to an alumni viewing of the Carolina v. Villanova game at Tommy Doyle's. I met up with two UNC class of '04 friends who live in Boston to watch the game. I also ran into another friend of mine who just recently moved to Boston. It was great to see all those UNC folks cheering on the Heels and singing the alma mater after winning the game. I can't wait til monday night!!! GO HEELS BEAT STATE!


If I could summarize our Sunday in 3 words it would be: wandering, leisurely, & relaxing.

We started off by waking up slowly & taking our time getting ready. We then took the T to the Prudential Center - there is seriously everything you could want inside the center. Food, shops, things, bathrooms, stuff.....Antyways, we went up to the 52nd floor of the Pru building to a resturaunt called Top of the Hub. They were serving sunday brunch for $40 a person. So we decided drinks would be a better option. We sipped momosas & enjoyed the view of Boston on the 52nd floor. It was absolutely gorgeous. There was a guy on the piano & another on the saxaphone who played while we sipped our champagne with a splash of orange juice (which we decided to call the unCoda - Bethany will know what we mean). Also, our waiter was a delight - further proving that Bostonian men are super nice & Bostonian women are super un-nice. Just a side note, don't drink momosas on an empty stomache in a classy resturaunt - could lead to serious trouble.

We pretty much spent the rest of the day wandering around Boston because we had no agenda & didn't really know where we were going. Case in point - we somehow wound up at the Christian Scientology Church, even tho we specifically said we didn't want to go there. We also strolled through the financial district & saw some beautiful churches. We then spend the rest of the afternoon wandering through the Boston Public Gardens & somehow found our way to Beacon Hill (which makes you feel like you are in colonial New England) and had an early supper.


And now, since we're awesome & don't want to go out and party with David the shuttle van driver, we will spend the rest of our eveing blogging, facebooking, twittering, texting, entouraging & lucky charming. The End. Stay tuned for more updates tomorrow.

  1. Sounds like you're having an awesome time! Thanks for naming a drink after me - or should I say, not after me? Either way, I'm honored.
