Boston 2019 - Part 10 More of Boston

It was way past lunch time when we left Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum that day. We quickly looked google up and decided to have our late lunch at Sweet Cheeks Q. It was a BBQ restaurant with very friendly staff. I ordered the biscuit that was supposed to be their specialty as well as pork belly as my main. The biscuit was on the sweeter side so it wasn't my favourite but the pork belly was good. DH had a burger and it was also pretty good.








After lunch, we made our way to Fenway Park, home to Boston Red Sox. It was closed at that time but it seemed like there was going to be a game going on that day as it was getting busier when we left (and the gates were open). Anyway I only went there to take some pictures so I was satisfied.









We went back to the Seaport area afterwards and were greeted by this sunset scenery.



We personalised our suitcase with new stickers
The next day was our last day in Boston but our flight was late in the evening. We made use of our morning to explore more of Boston. It was a busy morning in the downtown area and we walked a bit further because I wanted to try Gracenote Coffee, in consideration that it has such a high rating on Google.









We found the cafe without a problem but were disappointed that it was so small it didn't have any seats at all. I ordered a latte and it was well made even though the beans were not my favourite. Was it worth all the walk? Probably not...




We walked further towards Boston's Tea Party Museum. It was a sunny day with cool breeze. A perfect day for a stroll. We stopped to pose with this solar charger on the bench.














We arrived at the pier where Boston's Tea Party Museum was, saw the ship but weren't really interested in going inside. So we walked some more...












Wanting to check another spot on my list, we walked towards James Hook n Co for Lobster roll. The line inside the building was quite long but if you only want lobster roll and drinks you can order it outside. Other than cooked food, the company also sold frozen food as well as seasoning mixes. 

Both DH and I agreed that this lobster roll was better than Luke's Lobster. The bisque was a bit runny though. Regardless, we would recommend eating here!














It was finally mid day and we still had places to go to before heading to the airport. Please stay tuned for the next posts!

Nintendo Switch Sleeve Tutorial

Hi! I'm Kirana from woofkiki.blogspot.co.id . I am going to write an introduction for this blog post. We bought a Nintendo Switch in Japan.  I really liked it and played with it almost everyday. If you're wondering what a Nintendo Switch is, it is a video game where you can basically  "switch" everything. The joy-cons and even the game! You can also connect it to your TV. It would be nice to bring it around with you, but when you put it in your bag... Oh no! The screen scratched! So, this is a sleeve that will fix that. Let's get started!😊 Kirana Now the tutorial (by Kirana's mom)... 1. Make your pattern according to the picture below. It is basically a 6"x24" rectangle with a semi circle at one end. Note: this is not a printable pattern 1. Cut your outer fabric, lining, and batting(optional). In this tutorial, I used minky for lining and a pre-quilted fabric for the cover, so I didn't need extra batting. For batting, I recomm...

Labuan Bajo 2023 Part 3 - 3 Days 2 Nights Diving Trip With Chakana Liveaboard

  Photo credit: Lukas Rissing @thestudypacker A live-aboard experience is one of the highlights of Labuan Bajo. It has been on my bucket list for a while but every time I tried to go, something just didn't work out.... until now! The opportunity arose to join an impressive-looking boat this year and the dates matched Miss Kiki's holiday perfectly, how could I not take this rare chance! With less than a month to prepare, we booked plane tickets, accommodations, and whatever equipment we thought we might need. So off we flew to Labuan Bajo with little preparation and a lot of faith. ;) You can read the first and second parts of the trip in my previous posts. After we checked out of our hotel on the third day, we went to the pier and hopped on to a dinghy that took us to Chakana Liveaboard, a 47-meter-long phinisi-style yacht that was going to be our accommodation for the next two nights. My heart raced as we approached the pretty boat and spotted a group of staff excitedly wavi...

World of Ghibli Exhibition Jakarta 2017

A few months back I received an email about World of Ghibli exhibition in Jakarta. My skeptical brain immediately thought, "Aah, how good could it be... I've visited the museum in Mitaka   and it's probably not going to be any better." Fast forward to August, a few of my Japan loving friends mentioned that rumours said that the displays are very good, made by Indonesians in cooperations with Ghibli representatives from Japan. In fact, so good that the Japanese company plans to take the displays and give them a home in Japan. Well hearing this from several different people definitely piqued my interest and I decided to check it out. It turned out that Miss Kiki and DH also wanted to go so I bought tickets from Traveloka  because they had a sale.  In the morning of our visit day, I asked Miss Kiki if she wanted to dress up as Kiki when she goes and she excitedly said yes. I made her a red bow headband with Cotton and Steel's Supreme Solid in Bandana  ...
