JULY VACATION PART 1: Boston!

We started off our 6-day trip with a few days in Beantown. An all-suite hotel with a kitchen (for mom), hot tub (for dad) and pool (for the girls) was a great home base for these few VERY RAINY days! Immediately upon arriving at the hotel, the girls engaged in a session of jumping on the bed (a tradition at hotels that is not allowed at home!)


We decided to take public transportation from our hotel (in Burlington) to downtown Boston. This consisted of several transfers on a public bus and subway. Very easy, cheap and tons of fun!


It was much too wet (the soak-through-your-coat variety of rain storm) to enjoy exploring outside, so our day in town was spent at the Boston Museum of Science. It was great!
We all enjoyed the hands-on exhibits -- way too much to see in just one day!
We made a brief trip to Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market for some chowder and souveniers.
We all agreed -- I LOVE Boston!
