On Thursday, we went to the Minuteman National Historic Park and walked on the trail for about 3 hours before we decided to head elsewhere. We remembered we have seen this place along Route 93 that we thought was interesting. We went to Middlesex Fells Reservation but the kids were alreading sleeping when we got there so we just drove on. Our next interesting destination was Mt. Hood Memorial Park. The kids were still sleeping so off we drove again. This time, we went to the Blue Hills Reservation and then drove through Milton before heading home. Sorry, mummy too lazy to take photos that day...
On Friday, I saw this poster saying that there will be Santa Claus at the Watertown Mall at 10am. We went but were disappointed that we need to pay to have photos taken with Santa! We thought we would go to Boston Common instead for a walk. Sonya had fun chasing the pigeons and squirrels.
It was mighty cold which gave us the perfect excuse to have an early lunch at the Vietnamese restuarant in Chinatown. Justin and I each had a bowl of yummy Vietnamese beef noodle soup. Sonya loved the noodles and beef.
Then on Saturday, we decided to go to the other end of Massachusetts and see Mt. Everett. We went after lunch and it took us about 2 hours to get there via Mass Pike. Unfortunately, it was already 4pm and sunset is around 4.30pm these days. There was a beautiful pond and the edges of the water was frozen (it was -2 degrees celsius). Can you see where is Clara?
Clara is inside the baby bjorn inside my jacket. The white roundish thing around my arm was her head. Can you see her little feets at the bottom of my jacket?
I was more interested in the pond while Justin was interested in the view at the peak. Justin walked up to the peak on his own. The next 2 photos are what he saw on the way and at the peak respectively. When he came down, he said that the climb up was about 20 storeys!
Then on Sunday, we went to Gloucester for their Christmas parade.
Sonya liked the Grinch better than Santa :)
