Bostons children's museum is Awesome.

I've loved Boston. I'm writing this from our double bed underneath Starbucks bunk in the dark as she just wouldn't go to sleep tonight despite the threats of no sweets tomorrow. Cookie on the other hand fell asleep as normal she's not distracted by sleeping in our room, although she does now wake up every night, just once, at 4 am and then falls back to sleep quickly with a cuddle (how do I break this pattern?!?)

Boston is clean, it's based around a large park called Boston common, with independent coffee shops, cafés etc surrounding it. Short walks in any direction will bring you to old brownstone houses, museums or a shopping district. Today we went to the boston a Childrens Museum which we LOVED. We could have spent an hour in each of the rooms they have there playing, but they had too many. We also saw two short plays (20 mins each) and Starbucks got on stage and did some dancing.



Cookies favourite area was one with loads of golf balls you roll down slides etc although she just liked sitting holding the balls; and did that cute baby thing of struggling to pick up three things with two hands, constantly dropping one as she gained another.


Hand cycling to generate electricity .
Starbucks favourite, chairs that make music when you sit on them. She can't work out how they work though.
Magical animated butterfly's that land on your shadow
One of three water ways for boats.


Making pictures with tuning forks. Fun, but also something we would probably do at Tower tots on a Monday. (tower tots rocks)

Only criticism of Boston? No Dairy Queen. I've also already googled Aruba, no Dairy Queen there either. Oh I do love soft chocolate ice cream with pecans and brownie bits in. Oh yeah Georgia Mud Fudge, I'll be back!
