Day 3, Boston (...that's right. I'm still going with this thing...)

You would think that one of my favorite things about Boston would be all of the historic places we visited and unique restaurants we ate at,
              but you would be wrong.

Before we left Boston, Sam asked me what my favorite part of our trip had been. As I thought about it, the thing that brought me the most joy was memories of the time we spent in Kathleen's cozy apartment. For some reason, that was the time that we weren't side tracked by all of the interesting things around us and instead just focused on each other. I loved the lazy mornings we spent breakfasting in her kitchen, eating frozen strawberries on her couch as we watched episode after episode of "Parks and Recreation" late into the night, singing together as Kath played her ukulele, the moments of deep laughter, and the conversations between Kath and I that continued long after the rest of the house had fallen asleep.

Sure, the sight of the Boston Massacre and The Kings Chapel were really cool, but the truth is that they paled in comparison to the time Kath, Sam, and I spent just hanging out and enjoying each others company.

But, lest you think that all we did all day was hang around in Kathleen's apartment in our PJs; I should also tell you that we also spent PLENTY of time exploring, and going to some places that it seemed only the "locals" knew about. From a funny hat shop, to an underground pub we also had experiences out and about in the city that will last a lifetime as well.

On another note, those hats are so NOT either one of us! What were we thinking?

See those people at the table just beyond Sam? Yeah, we listened in on their conversation for a while. Let's just say the date wasn't going well.

You see, the thing about best friends is that sometimes simply spending time with each other is some of the most fun you can have - no matter where you are.
