Day 19 - Unpacking in Boston

We only had to sleep on the air mattress for one night!! The movers came the morning of our second day, and we spent almost the entire day unpacking and moving in - sweating it up in the humidity with no ice cubes.

The most hilarious thing that has happend, though, is that Nick has lost his voice entirely. He sounds inhuman.

To take a break, we ventured out into Back Bay and the shopping mecca that is Newbury Street. One of many shopping meccas in Boston. This one happens to be in old beautiful brownstones full of designer labels and cafes. It was here, that we finally found Nick and pair of jeans!!! We also walked around other main streets in Beacon Hill, etc.

The best part of today was that the cable guy came - he seemed pretty amused by everything we did - or maybe it was just hearing our accents. He told us that there were different search modes we could use since we had an NTSC built-in - we scanned and ended up finding over 100 channels!!!! Also, there are at least 10 PBS stations here.


The rest of the day consisted of putting things away in the kitchen and sorting the boxes until midnight-thirty . . . while watching the high-definition PBS stations. Awwww yeah.
