Apparently I hear it's snowing in Toronto, Oshawa and Newmarket today. Halloween's are always so cold, it totally sucks! But I have to giggle at them all, coz right now it's so nice and warm in Boston. I'm sweating in my hoodie and leather jacket. So right now I'm sitting in the airport with a tank top.
The trip was awesome, I absolutely love Boston. The style is not as obvious as Toronto, which surprosed me, because Boston has way more people, but there were some awesome outfits (and I'm not talking about Halloween costumes!) I am also amazed by their transit system. There are pro's and con's, like any system, but I am amazed by how far out their subway and bus system spreads out, as well as their commuter rail system.
A couple really interesting things...
- Sweet Goth/Witch shops in Salem. A definite must for the goth at heart and those interested in acquiring unique items of the spiritual arts. (I picked up a curious looking necklace that turned out to be a monacle!)
- Food is weird. Their cuisine seems to focus around grease, like most America cities, but they have an interesting seafood component and tend to add cranberries to almost anything.
- Newbury street is a mesh of Yorkville meets Queen West in Toronto. A lot of high end shops, and in between, cheap-o nail salons, consignment shops, pricey jewelry and fast food, something caters to everyone here. There's also a kitchy Fairy shop and high ender destinations like Betsey Johnson and Ted Baker.
And now off I go, in a wee plane home. There was only 13 people on the way in from Boston. The plane was so tiny, it had only one seat, then the aisle, then two seats. Very tight squeeze!!
