Boston Day 2

I fell asleep the night before my last day at about midnight. I can't believe I was able to stay up so late! I didn't eat enough that day and only had about 4-5 hours of sleep. I was runnin on fumes!

Around 8:30am I slowly crawled and lifted myself off of the air mattress. At 9am I hit the gym on the lowest level of the apartment building and put together a CrossFit workout. Felt good. I successfully worked out 4 out of the 5 days I said I was going to!

Once I showered, I got a few things together to hit the sidewalks for a stroll to Fenway Park. It was very sunny out and the walk was literally a 10 minute, IF THAT of a walk. We took tons of pictures and bought some memorabilia.

To back track slightly, we were walking up a street that ran parallel to the stadium. Foolishly, my sister and I are in t-shirts and it was colder than a witch's tit in a brass bra outside! This man walking down the street stops me and asks, "Wow, do you train?" Now, mind you I'm in a t-shirt, I'm toned, and I egotistically assumed he was asking about my "impressive guns". Haha.

I asked, "What?"
Dude: "Do you train to get like that?"
Me: "Um, yeah all the time."
Dude: "Wow, what do you do? How do you stay warm?"
Then I think to myself, Oh crap, he is wondering how I'm not wearing a jacket..."Well, I'm from Seattle. This is like great Spring weather for us!"

I kind of felt like a moron but this dude seemed very serious about my warm training regimen. I should invent one!

On the sides of the park there are World Series banners and banners of the names of the most memorable players of the franchise.

Also the park has tours every hour. I thought that was only during the season. so we missed it. Oh well! Next time I want not only a tour but to go to a game. BOOM! Next trip there already planned.

Here are a few more pics from the park:

Once we did that, we cabbed around to a grocery store and back to the apartment to pack and go home.

Did I learn anything that day, you ask? Why YES!

1. Only take cabs that label they can take you to the airport. Otherwise it is illegal. I waved a cab down and two pulled over. One laid on the horn to get the other to leave. Then the guy told me why. CRAZY.
2. If you recently got married always triple check your IDs and travel info match up. My maiden name was on my ticket. The only ID I had with that name was my Costco card. The ONLY reason I got home was because I had my military ID and the TSA guy said, "If you weren't in the military, I wouldn't let you through." Wow right? Its like no one believed my mistake. So check your shit!

My entire east coast trip was awesome. I saw my best friend Ashley, Boston, Fenway and had a blast with my sister. I learned quite a lot about traveling solo and navigating unknown territory but I survived. It has me totally pumped for Japan!

Now it's back to the daily grind. I had a blast but I was ready to see my hubby! I miss his face!
