June Walks

As you may or may not have gathered, my main form of exercise is taking walks around the city. Here are some images from my city walks in the month of June. 
The roses are in bloom in Christopher Columbus Park.
Adam and I visited the seals at the New England Aquarium.
How cute is this guy?
We got ice cream at Emack & Bolio's. The one on Central Wharf off Atlantic Avenue is cash only.
I got Grasshopper Pie - Creme de Menthe with Chocolate Chips and Oreos, one of my favorite combinations. Adam got Strawberry with rainbow sprinkles. I think they have excellent quality ice cream here. And get a load of those insane waffle cones. Next time...
Old North Church in the distance through the Paul Revere Mall.
Sunrise over The Public Garden / Boston Common
Purple flowers with which I am obsessed.
You know, hanging out in my favorite tree.
The Clock Tower always looks nice.
It has certainly been a lovely month for walking about the city!!

  2. These are beautiful pictures. I love walking and actually think it's a better form of exercise than running.

    Isn't it sad that now seals and other marine life are actually better off in aquariums than they are in the ocean? No oil spills in the aquarium.

  3. I love those purple flowers in the park! Thanks. If YOU can't look pretty eating tacos, then I won't worry - I'm sure you're the expert.
    Yeah I agree I feel so bad for those animals - no wonder they go mad sometimes, right? Talk about claustrophobia and boredom.

  10. Oh! This makes me miss Boston so...

    Great photos and you are right...few things better than a leisurely stroll around the city with a stop at Emacks (-:

    Enjoy the summer! Hope there are lots more walks in store for you in July!
