A Walk in the Park

Below is Cabot Tower. Apparently you can climb a staircase to the top, but we were pretty worn out just walking to the park that we just wanted to sit and admire the view. It's very up and down here. There's hardly any even walking surfaces. No matter what path we take to get back to our apartment, we wil have to walk at tleast part of the way uphill. There's no avoiding it. I think I've lost a million pounds already.

This was the view from our park bench! It was a gorgeous day, but the weather here is wacky. Sometimes I'll wake up in the night and it'll be pouring, then I'll wake up and it'll be sunny and I think it's all been a dream. Then 20 minutes later it'll be raining again. Then sunny. Then windy. Layers is the solution to the weather enigma. Dress in layers and you'll always be prepared. I still need to find a cute little umbrella to carry around for rainy occasions.











So we are very annoyed by our upstairs neighbors. It's two girls form India (their names escape me, but I remember that they were pretty names) that seem really nice and friendly.... but holy crap. They must have brought their elephant friends with them from India because all we hear all day long is thumping up and down the stairs and above our heads. This morning I woke up to them nonstop on the stairs. It's comical how lead-footed they are!!! Well it would be comical if it weren't so dang annoying. Seriously, dainty steps please ladies!
Fashion faux pas from yesterday: Pumpkin pants.... PUMKIN PANTS! They didn't look good on Henry VIII and they didn't look good on this chick. Someone needs to tell her that it's a male garment meant for Ren Faires and Ren Faires only (it's a bit harsh, but she really did look silly).
We haven't been able to contact the Bishop yet for church, which makes me sad because I was really looking forward to going this week. According to the Google map it look like it's in someone's home, so I really want to contact someone bafore we go in case the website hasn't been updated recently and it's in someone else's home... anywya hopefully they call us back and we get to go!

Those neighbors sound like fun...maybe you could kindly mention how you can hear every little thing through the ceiling. They might take the hint. The pictures are beautiful. Sounds like the geography is very different from the Eastern Shore. I would like to walk those streets with Adam in the stroller. Great workout!
