I went to Boston for the third time last weekend. I remember loving it when I was there the previous time, but I fell in love with it once again last weekend.

It’s just such a fantastic city! I love how clean it is. I love how historic it is yet still with a modern touch. I love how manageable it is to travel around. It doesn’t have the big name tourist traps that New York City has become famous for, like Statue of Liberty or Empire State Building, but it does have that charm and homey feeling that I haven’t quite found in New York. Maybe I would feel different about New York if I actually stayed there for a few nights instead of doing day trips. New York is a fantastic city that has everything imaginable under the sun, but that also makes it a little bit cold and impersonal at times.

All in all, I had a great weekend in Boston.

It’s not your Mall of America, but it’s not that bad of a mall. It’s medium-sized and middle class. It probably has what you want if you’re not too picky. I haven’t been there on a weekend evening, but I’m sure it’s filled with kids from middle and high schools.

I was just in Hong Kong, but visiting Disneyland just didn’t work out in my schedule. I was actually told by a couple of people that it’s not really worth visiting. Perhaps when I go to Hong Kong next time, they will have more at Disneyland and make it worthwhile to visit.
