I know this is a week late, but I just wanted to tell about my trip to Boston for July 4th weekend with my girlfriend.
I took the bus in Chinatown on Friday afternoon and came back Tuesday afternoon. Here is what I had planned:
Friday night: go out with her cousin and her boyfriend to some Boston bars.
Saturday: go to Six Flags
Saturday night: go out to the Cheesecake Factory and have a shrimp and bacon sandwich and some cheesecake
Sunday: sightseeing in downtown Boston
Sunday night: going out to a club
Monday: 4th of July stuff
Here is what happened:
Friday night: we got there late so we didn't get to go out, we just hung out with her family
Saturday: we went to Water Country in Portsmouth? New Hampshire. It was pretty fun, but I would have rather gone to Six Flags, but we changed because my girlfriend's cousin decided to come and being pregnant, she could do more at the waterpark
Saturday night: we actually did go to the Cheesecake Factory and the sandwich and cheesecake were amazing
Sunday: we went to her cousin's barbeque, got to eat lots of free food, then her other cousin's boyfriend was going to play ball with a bunch of his friends and he invited me along, I smoked one into the woods in BP, went 3 for 5 with a single, double and triple, drove in 3 runs and scored 3, made 5 great plays in left and made them all look like children out there
Sunday night: went out to a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown and then a cozy little bar and got wasted
Monday: 4th of July stuff, great fireworks show in Boston Common\
Here is the kicker of my entire weekend: on Friday, whilst at work, I wrote an ESPN Radio guy with whom I correspond regularly and told him about my trip, he replied that he could get me Red Sox tickets for Sunday's game (the day I had the least to do and the most flexibility), but I had to pick them up in Bristol at ESPN Studios, the bus wasn't going to stop by ESPN, but we were going to Six Flags, an hour away, and I could just drive over and pick them up, but, as you see, we actually went to New Hampshire, the entire opposite direction, so close, yet so far from a perfect weekend, but Boston was great, I'll make it a point to make more than one trip in my lifetime
