Inside the Cheers bar!!Inside the Cheers bar!!Inside the Cheers bar!!

this is where i had breakfast...two american hotdogs and chips!!
This is my first big day out in Boston City, I had to wake up early cos I was taking my lil cousins into the the city on the train, naturally we missed the first one and had to wait around for the next one to come through....but all in all it was a great day, i even met a few other tourists from england and australia!!! it was actually really cool cos i still aint met another kiwi yet... then there were the dark dancers at fanual hall, they were pretty crazy, i hope the pics show how nuts they were... I also got to have breakfast in the Cheers bar!!! that was a real hoot (the lady sitting at the bar isnt my girlfriend either....and yes it is a lady)
i also took a big train ride so i could go to the British consulate...they didnt end up helping me at all but i was allowed to take some pictures from the balcony, wahoo.
anyways enjoy cos i certainly did!!
