st. pat's in boston

ridiculous. seas of green. green beer. green people from too much green beer. not really my scene but still fun.

today we went to fenway for a tour. it was actually pretty interesting, despite my lack of any interest in baseball. after that we went back to quincy market for something...i can't remember at this point...exhaustion has reared its ugly head.

then we went to find lobster rolls for lunch...disappointing to say the least, but now we can all say we've had them. i'm sure they were great...supposed to be the best in boston...just not what i was expecting.

after lunch, we headed out to harvard on the T (that's what they call the subway in boston) and wandered around there. liz and i wanted to sneak into a class just to say we had...but then we chickened out and ended up using the restrooms in the science building...man, we're rebels.

after that, we went back downtown to the arlington area and walked around a bit and found the perfect spot in boston commons (their smaller but less sketchy version of central park) to people watch. then we found a starbucks so chan could charge her phone.

then we split up and liz and i went to dinner in the north end (where all the irish pubs are) and chan and kristan went to the celtics/knicks game. let me tell you. downtown boston on st. patrick's is absolutely crazy. great people watching. and the green bud light wasn't bad either.
