Opting to save Hellmouth posts until later. We decided to make a trip into Boston today, so we loaded Abbie into the car with us and dropped her off at the Petsmart in Cambridge. She's a Hahvahd girl now. And I'm pleased to report only one time out the whole time she was in camp.
Although we've been many many times, I decided to play tourist and snap pictures of all the common stuff. With the exception of this goofy shot of Pooh with Charlie (Charlie is the new card system for the T. For some reason this fascinated him beyond belief. I of course had to get a picture).

Boston Gardens

Make Way for Ducklings (we sat on the bench by this for 15 minutes waiting for the kids and their nannies to stop gossiping. That's how badly I wanted a picture. :) )

The bridge in the Gardens (an artist was painting from this angle. He looked a bit annoyed that I stood behind him to get a picture)

The T

Duck House in Boston Harbor

The Harbor

And not in Boston, but my gorgeous nephews and my niece, after a dip in the pool:
