I Left My Heart in Boston

It's been roughly a month since we returned home from Boston, and I can't seem to get the charming old city off of my mind. Garrett feels the same way, we both agree that if we had jobs lined up there we would move in a heartbeat. During our four day stay we soaked up everything we could and I still don't feel like I got enough Boston! Let me bullet point some of my favorite things about our trip/the city:

• The history. Boston was founded in 1630, and is one of the oldest cities in America. I really felt like I was going back in time during parts of our trip. If you have any interest at all in US history, you will not be disappointed.
• The architecture. I guess this ties into the history part. All of the homes and buildings were so interesting to look at. I was such a peeping tom- I tried to look in all of windows that were lit when we walked by.
• The public transportation. We never had to rent a car. We were able to get most everywhere by taking the Subway or train.
• Dog friendly. Seriously, people took their dogs everywhere. Even our hotel manager brought her dog with her. This really won over the dog lover in me.
• The food! Hello seafood is all I need to say.

And now some of my favorites in pictures:

Some good eatin' in the North End.

Row-houses.

The company. Garrett is the best traveling partner {best partner for anything really} I could have hoped for.

Salem is next, that haunted little town gets a post all of its own!
