Dinner in Boston

On Saturday night we had dinner with four of Heather's friends and her cousin, J. We drove into Boston's South End, and although the parking was extremely limited and the traffic was crazy, the drive gave me a good chance to see a bit of Boston. We're really busy with family commitments at the moment, in the lead up to Thanksgiving, but we'll do some sightseeing in Boston as soon as possible.

We ate at a restaurant called Garden of Eden and the food was delicious. Afterwards we went to a tiny jazz club called Wally's Cafe. For me, the best part of the evening was walking from place to place and looking at the beautiful brownstone buildings. Everything is so old and gorgeous. Often there was steam spilling out from the buildings, from steam heating, and I got Heather to take a picture of me and J. in front of one of the vents. When we returned to our car at about 2am, there was frost on the top. Driving home, we passed a clock that told us the time and the temperature in big neon letters. At 2:30am, it was minus four degrees.
