Boston

The day it was almost the end

Today was my last full day in Boston. I'm leaving tomorrow afternoon and I will arrive quite late in NY then, I'm really not sure I will be able to post here.
My day started early again, with a visit of Harvard and the Museum of Natural History (in Harvard). The museum wasn't as big as the one I saw in NY, but it was very interesting and I've learned several things. Do you know the color of the pigment of a blue feather? It's black, but some air bubbles make it look blue, hahahah!!! You didn't know, right?

The day it was too late

I'm very tired and today, the post will be short. I'm also a little fed up because the museums close early and I didn't do what I expected to do: for a lot of small museums, you must follow a guide who speaks english and tell you much more than you need to know and all this make you waste your time and miss other museums. That could sum up my day.

The day I took 332 pictures

I'm a pictures addict, but I think I've never taken so many pictures. Today started early because some of my roomates woke up at 7.00 and then I did the same.

The day I left NY

This morning I woke up early (6.30am... who said holidays were cool???), had a fast breakfast (a very yummy spices & orange cake I bought on Staten Island yesterday) and took the subway to Chinatown to take my bus. As always, I arrived early because you almost never wait for the subway here and you always find your way easily. While waiting for the bus, I started speaking Russian with an Armenian lady taking the bus to Boston. She has several grand-children living in France... the world is soooo small!!!!
