Day 11! I headed over to the New England Aquarium for a stroll through the tanks and then some whale watching. The aquarium itself is nice with plenty of things to see. My favorites were the dreaded jellyfish, the awesome turtles, and the leafy sea dragons. The sea dragons looked like weeds being blown way by a sea current. The penguin exhibit was also pretty cool. Its amazing to see the difference between the dorkish/doltish penguins on land and then watching them glide through the water like underwater ballerinas. Afterwards, I went on a whale-watching trip that guaranteed whales or your money back! I got to see right wales I guess. Mostly it was just their humps going in and out of the water. So I guess I wouldn’t be getting my money back. Still I ... read more

Today has definitely been the most packed day of them all, and it happened in this place that is Boston. Firstly, I'll clear up some questions that people have been asking. No, it's not as hot as it is in New York, and not as humid, but still much hotter than back home! The place is so much different than anything else I've seen, but maybe that's because I've only been to two places here? I don't know, but you probably do :p Also, Willie left to go to Washington when I went to Boston. It's a shame, because he didn't leave or seem to want to give me any of his information, but I guess if I really wanted to get in touch, there aren't that many Willie Kunkel's in Washington state east of the ... read more

I finally got out of that huge city that was New York, and into a much younger population in the student populated city of Boston! Forgive that long and possibly strange sentence, it's just that with a new place comes new enthusiasm for this place. However, that is all in the now, but I'm going to move back to yesterday where I left it. But, before I go there, I just want to say that I caught up on the Big Brother news. Has there been some arguments or what?! Ok, for real this time. After I left the internet cafe yesterday, I thought I'd try and catch up with Willie after the show he saw, which was 'Phantom Of The Opera'. There were so many people coming out of that place, I swear I thought ... read more

Hi guys I hope that everyone at home is doing okay. Well my last few days in Boston have been pretty uneventful to tell the truth. It has been so hot and muggy that all I try and do all day is find a nice cool place to sit down and read. The first day that I arrived the airline lost my luggage so I was in the same clothes all day on monday. I pretty much slept the whole time because I couldn't sleep on the red-eye flight to philly or the early morning flight to boston. Getting to the hostel was really easy. Boston's metro is super simple to navigate. Anyway I mostly just hung out a the park and read my book all day. The next day I went to Boston College and ... read more
