Sooo we went to the science museum to see the world largest Imax (tess had never been to one before) we went to see a movie about the Grand canyon- preparing ourselves for the real thing in a few weeks! anyhoo.. after pushing the thousands of kids away( or by using foul language so their parent moved them for us ....whats sad is that really happened...) we had a play on some of the toys (we spent about 5hrs there)
Later in the week we went to Harvard, which was very cool. We spent time wondering round and going into book stores. Whilst in the Harvard Bookstore, as tess looked at history book i found possibly the only 'pub humour, dirty joke book' in there and so spent much of my time giggling away in a corner. I admit Harvard is nice, but Nottingham, i believe is nicer....we have a Lake for example.... and errr.....lots of concrete buildings!
Then we headed off down the Freedom trail....basically a trip that reminds everyone how America won its independence and how they beat the British etc etc (yawn). Most the time it sounds like the script from Star Wars (The big evil tea swigging empire trying to take the universe whilst the republic saves the day and destroys the death star) anyhoo we got near the end and wound up at USS constitution, which was very cool (even though the HMS Victory is older and has a better name, and won battles by not cheating) there were loads of Navy folk hanging out all over the path which just made we giggle lots ... lots of seamen all over the place covering the freedom trail etc etc
anyhoo tomorrow we are off the Plymouth rock, which i am assured is just a rock (not even the first place they landed, that would be Provincetown in Cape Cod) but should be Fun......
