Hi everyone!
I am back from my fantastic vacation in the East Coast! Boston, Montreal, Quebec City and the states of New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine are teeming with wonderful history, architecture, art, natural beauty (especially the fall foliage) and great food (calzones at the venerable Bova Bakery, "creme pies", "chowdahs", lobsters, wild blueberries, etc.)
Looks like I have much to catch up on in the discussion topics here!

Glad you had a good trip and are back safely. It's especially exciting to hear that you visited the beautiful city of Montreal.

Welcome back! Isn't it just great in the New England states. I'd like to get to Maine yet but I've been to Mass., Vermont and New Hampshire - LOVED IT and we try to go every other year to at least New Hampshire. I think I'm going to Cape Cod for my 50th in two years. Been there many times but look forward to this time especially.

Thanks, WJ7. It's great to be back. Traveling always gives me fresh new perspectives on life and my reference point to the rest of the world. Glad you had a good trip and are back safely. It's especially exciting to hear that you visited the beautiful city of Montreal. Yes, Montreal is a beautiful city. I was impressed with its botanical garden, the almost aeronautical architectural style of the stadium built for the Olympics, the quaint neighborhoods and diverse downtown area. O.E., it sounds like you must have lived/visited here yourself and/or have personal connections with this city! Welcome back! Isn't it just great in the New England states.

Beaner, it was fun for me to visit Maine even though it's past the prime of the seasons for wild blueberries and lobsters. Cape Cod was a potential destination for me, but given the limited time and long drive on this trip (over 1,000 miles), something's gotta give... I wish I had more time to visit a few more historical attractions along the Freedom Trail when I was in Boston! Hi Dreams, welcome back! I had missed your insightful posts. I'm sure your trip was awesome. Please take some time and let us know about it. Great to have you back! Tim Hey Tim, it's great to hear from you, too! On this trip I must have taken well over a thousand photos to capture the many local points of interest and attractions, all too numerous to mention. I felt like the proverbial kid in a candy store. I'm sure that your visit with Palma in New York will be full of adventures too! |
