We have always felt Michael struggles to see clearly beyond a few feet. He was given prescription glasses a few years ago which he couldn't adapt to. Well, he still needed glasses and the school and a local optometrist confirmed that. Here he is showing his new pair off.
Went with a friend, Mark, to collect my Rolex which needed a service. Turns out the watch, given to me by my Dad, is quite a collectors item. The model is nearly 40 years old and was made popular by the iconic Steve McQueen. Here is Mark posing in front of the city in the bracing wind.
After picking up the watch we visited the historic north end where many Italians find their roots. We engaged in a progressive lunch as we tasted the exquisite Italian cuisine. Here is a pic of the main street in that area.
The oldest existing structure in Boston, the home of Paul Revere was also on our walkabout. It is the dark grey building in the background.
On our way home we crossed over the newly built Zakim bridge which is reminiscent of the Nelson Mandela bridge.
Boston has an intriguing character, full of history. It has a great blend of European and local culture. Just love it!
