Today, we took the metro to the Fine Arts museum. It was very nice. They had some Monet paintings that I really liked. They also had a Megacities Exhibit. It was very interesting and interactive.
Then we went back to downtown Boston. We watched the street entertainers and shopped. We had last nicholas in a Lebanese place and then went to the Italian section to buy cannoli at Mike's. There was a church parade on the street. They had a band and were carrying a statue of a saint. They stop all the traffic for the parade. Drivers were getting angry and honking. Then a man came out with a huge pile of fire crackers and set them off in the street. The parade passes by bars and other businesses give them money for "protection" from the saint. We wandered around looking at different things and then returned to Sommerville to shop for some warmer clothes. I bought a long sleeved shirt and a hooded jacket.
