Megan's Progress: June 23rd

First I would like to thank everyone who attended the pub crawl for Megan yesterday! From what I heard, it was a huge success. Megan was going to stop by, but her therapy schedule changed at the very last second. We got a picture from one of Megan's friend!

Today was Megan's day off, and it was a busy one. We took her into the North End to walk around and get lunch. I'm sure most of you experienced the heat today, and we were no exception. It is harder than you would think to maneuver a wheel chair through the bumpy streets in the North End. I got quite the work out!!

We walked around for a little while and met up with my Mom's cousin's daughter (mine and Megan's 3rd cousin) Colleen. She lives in the North End and is studying to get her PhD in Physical Therapy. It was great to meet up with her! We got sandwiches at one of the cafes. We were going to sit by the fountains, but it was just too hot. We walked back to the Paul Revere Mall and sat in the nice shade. It was a nice break from the sun. I just wanted to go there to see Paul Revere wearing a Bruin's Jersey! Still gotta believe that the B's will make the come back!

Supporting the B's.

After lunch, Colleen had to leave us, but we headed over to Mike's Pastry! For those of you who don't know, Mikes Pastry sells the best cannolis in the North End. Usually the line is out the door, but we lucked out. There was a parade for a Saint going on outside and took the attention of most of the people around. We snuck into Mike's and got our cannolis. I have never seen it that empty before...we beat the rush coming in after the parade.

The best cannolies!

We headed right next door to get some gelato at Caffe Vittoria. It was so good! After that we were about ready to head back. It was still very hot, and Megan was getting tired. We headed back to Spaulding, and that was our day out on the town! These are some of the pictures we took!
