We took yet another early morning flight - I am getting really tired of all the early flights - to get from Montreal to Hartford in the United States.
Mama's friend was supposed to meet us but unfortunately one of her relatives died in Australia and so although we travelled across the globe to see her, she ended up back where we came from. Anyway, her husband picked us up and we spent a couple of days with Brian, his twin boys and their younger brother.
The twins and their dog Molly were very glad to see me. We went for a walk up the road past the very nice houses (Daddy's note: beautiful New England homes and BIG) to a nearby university where we ran around and then rolled down a hill in the autumn leaves - the twins called them fall leaves. Daddy has a great photo of it and will post it eventually.
The next day we went to Boston and toured Fenway Park, the home of baseball's Redsox. We heard all about the great Ted Williams and stories of the green monster in left field (it's a big wall in case you don't know). We even climbed on the monster. It has a manual scoreboard that you have to operate from inside with no airconditioning or heating. I enjoyed the trip so much I am now a Redsox fan. Unfortunately, the Redsox missed the World Series after losing later that night.
MILKSHAKE
Nearby Fenway I had a milkshake which was a little lacking in flavour. I would rate it at four stars - just passable. Milkshakes are hard to find believe it or not.
Well this has been a short post. Keep looking for more.
