It’s a beautiful crisp autumn day in the heart of Boston. I was up before Bobby this morning showered and dressed to hit the road as soon as he left for work. He carpooled with one of the other guys whose here in town and I had the car for the day.

I started the day bright and early with Nellie, one of our best road trip friends. Yeah, that’s what we call our Nuvi Garmin. Normally I would be nervous to endeavor such a drive to the city alone but not today as Nellie had my back. She’s been our pal for nearly 2 years now and I can’t imagine driving without her.

Deeper

And Deeper into the city we go just me and my little pal Nellie.

We found a nice parking spot and I programmed Nellie so that she could take me right back to that spot should I get lost.

The first little jewels I saw were these beautiful babies all nestled into this Baby Limo as I call it. That little carriage seats 6 babies and on the side reads bye bye buggy. I have never seen such a carriage in all my life and I had to capture the moment. I just can’t understand why that little guy in the front seat didn’t have any socks or anything on his little feet. It was in the low 40’s this morning and reaching a high of 65 for the day.

I passed by so many beautiful buildings and this church really caught my eye

But the doors of the church are what truly caught my eye first

$1.00 for a sack of red peppers. I’m kicking myself for not swooping in on that deal.

No doubt this is Chinatown

Pretty little nuggets

Thought they were just too cute watching the birds

It was a feeding frenzy in the heart of town where bread and rolls were freely given.

This telephone booth with the pagoda on top caught my eye.

Nellie and I stopped for lunch and I had tilapia on a bed of rice with some nice steamed veggies on the side. It was oh so yummy!

I walked and walked, shopped and took in the city one step and block at a time and by the time I was ready to go I was completely lost. There is absolutely no way I would have been able to find my car. Even though we’ve had Nellie for about 2 years, I panicked thinking what if Nellie steers me wrong and I can’t find my car. But as always, she knows right where she is at all times and she directed me right back to my car without any trouble. And little Nellie and I will continue to live happily ever after.

Now I’m ready for a little afternoon nap and then I’ll be ready to go out with Bobby when he gets in from work.
