Hello there,

Just a quick little post! Yesterday myself, and my parents went to the Boston Harbor-area for an afternoon walk as there was a local food market happening. There were a lot of stands, and fortunately we got to try a lot of really good food – most of it vegan actually. Aanyways, on the way home, and around town we bumped into some things, and I just happened to have brought my camera along.

This guy. The joy! He was totally rocking out, and quite a crowd had gathered around him as he sang/played/performed Adele’s ‘Rolling in the Deep’

Further on, just as we were about to be home, a parade suddenly showed up! No kidding. It was the weirdest thing ever. Obviously I stopped and took some pictures. I must say however that I have absolutely no clue as to what type of parade it was or who they were … some were so ‘on’, and others quite literally looked like they’d been forced to participate, but nonetheless, quite amusing to watch.

I just love those days that you don’t really expect anything from, and then it just turns out to be one of the really good ones,

– And of course a little goodie for the ears

Finally the day came. The day where I upped and moved to Boston! (Or more precisely: Cambridge, MA)

I arrived Friday afternoon, after quite a long flight. It was a surprisingly good experience as all (and I mean ALL) the people we (my sister and I) interacted with were extremely nice, and it just helped with the whole uncomfortable-travel-on-a-plane-with-no-way-to-sit-comfortably-for-10-hours-and-several-crying-slash-screaming-babies-whilst-all-you-want-to-do-is-shut-everything-out-do-some-stretches-and-sleep-situation.

With all that over and done with, I must say that Boston Logan Airport did surprise us greatly – this said in the most positive way you can imagine. We were in a cap no more than 30 minutes (YES! 30 minutes!) after the plane had touched ground. Never have I ever experienced such a quick exit from ANY airport, and let me just say that last time i visited the US, it took me not one, but TWO hours(!) to get through immigration and all that jazz.
In fact, it was so fast that our ride (good old daddy-o) hadn’t even left the house yet! No joke.

Finally I am here. We have already been around Harvard’s campus, around cambridge, and found way too many things that will need to be bought later on. I will need to start organise, and decorate my room (yes, I moved back in with my parents – wohoo!). This process, which I am most excited about, will definitely be up on the blog sometime soon!

That was it for today, as jetlag and catching up with the parents has taken up most of the day-and-a-half I have currently spent here.
