Bean Town!

I'm in Boston and I have to say this is one AMAZING city!  It is
absolutely gorgeous and everything is totally clean and pristinely kept.
I don’t know what I was expecting but it definitely was not this.  My hotel was right in the middle of down town
which has been both a blessing and a curse. For those of you who have never been to Boston of for those of you
planning on visiting I have one piece of advice for you.  Take a cab! The drivers here are not bad it’s the streets that are impossible to
navigate!  Also the pedestrians here have
a death wish.  They literally will walk
out in front of your car without even looking. And they do not use crosswalks just cross anywhere there is a break in
traffic.  Yesterday afternoon I had to
run a couple of errands before the dinner I was hosting so I ventured out near
my hotel.  The first crosswalk I came to
the red hand was on so I stopped. Everyone around me kept right on walking.  I instantly identified myself as from out of
town because I waited for the walk sign to go before I went.  I am hoping to leave the office a little
early today and get out to see some of the town.  I don’t have a ton of time because my flight
leaves Boston at 6:30 but hopefully I will see something.  If not I will have to get back out here again
(hopefully with Terence).

P.S. not sure why my formatting is so weird today.  Blogger decided this post should look like a poem.
