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...

Spring in Egypt Part 9 - Luxor Temple

At the time when we arrived at Luxor temple it was already after dusk and it became a little difficult to take photos. I compensated by setting my camera ISO to 4000 to make tripod-less picture-taking possible even though the grains became more visible. Just like the previous nights, the moon still looked round to me. I wasn't sure which one of those moons was the actual full moon. We walked around the temple first with Michael for explanations about the temple. In the distance we were able to hear the adzan calling the people for prayer. Situated in the east bank, the construction of the temple was started by Amenhotep III, continued and finished by the famous King Tut and Horemheb, and then added on to by Rameses II and finally by Alexander the Great. Unlike the other temples we had previously visited, this temple is not dedicated to a single cult/god. Instead, it is used as a place to rejuvenate kingship. May of the kings were said to have been coronated at this temple. ...

Japan Winter Holiday 2017 Part 7 - Otaru Sakaimachi

On our second day in Otaru after we had breakfast and ice cream , we continued walking to Sakaimachi. This shopping street is one of the busiest in the city and is where a lot of Otaru attraction is located. In front of one of the stores there, we saw this cute dog wearing a Minion outfit. Of course Miss Kiki jumped and squealed and asked if she could pet it. We asked permission from the owner to take a picture with it. Along the street they have rock statues in the shape of famous characters like Anpanman and Mickey Mouse. With Anpanman It was a very nice day, we were able to walk around and had fun without feeling cold even though there were a lot of ice and snow. Check out the platforms they set up on the hill. We think that it's to prevent snow slides... Most of the buildings there were old style,,,  Many shops sell fresh seafood and they would cook it for you by order. As we walked past a souvenir shop, we saw a poster for these snowball make...
