We all had fun on our three day trip to Boston. Mia not only checked out many new playgrounds - like this one just behind the hotel - but also got to see a lot of new things.
Chinatown with its restaurants and bakeries was only two blocks from the hotel and Boston commons, a great old park, only a ten minute walk away. Here Mia could study the art work at the frog pond.
We also went on a ride with the swan boat and Mia could feed some ducks after wards.
It was also a good place for a little race with mama:
The walkway on the Charles river needed some clean up:
We also checked out some historic sites like the USS Constitution
Mia didn't like the sailor's hat from the souvenir shop:
After all the sight seeing it was time for a pizza in the North End. We had to wait in line for 15 minutes first..
..and also wait a bit inside but it as worth it.
After wards we sampled some cookies from a Italian bakery in the park where the elevated freeway used to be
In the evening we all relaxed in out hotel suite
The next day we were off to Harvard. After a snack on Harvard square and a tour of the college we also spend time on a nice playground
For a week now Mia has been attending a preschool nearby. Her "Happy Apples" class meets three time a week for three hours and she seems to be enjoying it.
When mama picks her up she is showing her the puzzles and other toys and would even play a bit longer
Her teacher even managed to get a hug from her
After getting soaked by tropical storm Lee for three days we had a sunny and warm weekend. On one trip we checked out a small private zoo in Reston a 30 minute drive away.
She had to check out the rhinoceros as well
There was also a small lake with a paddle boat ride
After the ride Mia was busy feeding the ducks
And since it was quite hot a Popsicle was part of the program as well
