Sunday 28th february, Boston

I wanna start my post with the picture of my apartment’s facade and another one of newbury street, the street where my apartment is. Nice, isn’t it?

The facade of my apartmentNewbury St.

Yesterday was a good day! I didn’t speak spanish with anybody, I met some people of other countries and, just in case, twice I avoided spaniards for two times at the same museum. But no matter what you do, we are in everywhere! :P

The red line of Boston :-)Boston General LibraryI started my trip through the city in on the subway (the closest station to my apartment closest stop is coplay next to the Boston public Library, the building of the picture). I bought the CharlieCard (like T10 in Barcelona) and I took the green line until Park Street to start the Freedom Trail.

Before start starting my walk, I bought a phone card to speak with ring Spain cheaper and a “pay as you go” sim card from T&T. Now I have a new USA mobile number (and also a 15$ mobile :P … they don’t sell these kind of cards without a mobile) and everything are is easier :-)

I started the Freedom Trail (alone) and I got a glimpse of some of the most famous and historical sites in Boston (museums, churches, meeting houses, burying grounds, parks, a ship, and historic markers), It’s an amazing trip following red bricks from Boston Common to the boston harbour :-) I was walking walked a total of 2.5 miles!

The red line

When I was finishing my walk I entered at Quincy Market and I ate a pizza bagel, it wasn’t so bad but I prefer Italian pizzas. The first problem I have in Boston is that the meals are so fatty, I need to do more exercise here than in Spain :P

Quincy MarketA lot of food shops

I was surprised because on Sunday all the shops are opened and I was shopping open and I can go shopping a lot :-) Cool clothes of brands I never had never heard before!

Everybody in the street dress warmly warm clothes.  They wears wear globes, scarf and hat. Maybe tomorrow I’ll buy a pair of globes because de temperature here is under 0ºC. It’s freezing! But that thing isn’t an a stopper for the fashion girls of the States, they wear sunglasses… I don’t understand anything (estando aquí, no das crédito), I haven’t seen the sun yet.

I’m impressed about the amount of fire stairs there are in Boston… but the people of that building can be problems if they need to use those people can get into trouble if they use them :P
Fire stairs...

Here you are more pictures about the Freedom Trail…

Hey Daniel, it’s great to see you are improving your English a lot. Stay away from the sun-glassed girls – they are mine and Carlos’s territory :D HA-HA-HAHA

Cheers, Petar.

P.S. And, yes, Boston seems to be a really nice city ;)

“I don’t give credit” either!! (jeje) Tell those girls that the best sun is in Barcelona, concretely in my apartments windows. It seems very cold: you have to eat a lot of calories and then sweat them in the gym and in the Alpha Alpha university clubs.
