Some First Images...

We're here safe and sound and tired. 

E was a trooper during the flights, holding out even during a really turbulent bit coming into Boston.  She charmed everyone...flight attendants, customs officers, security checkpoint people.

Fall is definitely not over here...lots of beautiful leaves and a high of 24 today 

(but it's now supposed to cool off substantially).

After dumping our stuff at the hotel, 

we took the subway downtown, walked around a bit, and bought supper from some street vendors. 

Our first impression of Bostonians/Massachusettians (Massuachusites?) is decidedly favourable...

everyone is friendly (it helps that E wins them over).

And we got chills upon first encountering the downtown core...so much brick and cobblestone. 

Right up our alley.

Our lovely soft king size bed.

Quincy Market (and a random guy stretching)
