I’ve tried to go to Harvard Square two other times before and — no joke — each time I accidentally got on the T going the wrong direction. I’m just so used to going into Boston!
After Rae and I managed to make it there, we spent a couple of hours power-walking around the crowds of students and tourists (we can’t stand to walk slowly!) We spent some time browsing the Harvard Book Store, walked past a wedding, looked at consignment shops, and drank apple cider. We got hungry, so Rae introduced me to Border Cafe where I had my first ever empanada. Maybe I had never seen a vegetarian version before, or maybe I am just very dedicated to burritos, but I can’t believe I have been missing out on these all my life! Yum! Unfortunately all the empanadas put me in a food coma and I didn’t accomplish much aside from weeping profusely at the finale of the fourth season of Doctor Who!
I guess our exploration of Harvard Square wasn’t that adventurous, but it’s hard to believe how nice the weather still is! Just walking around outside is nice (though it doesn’t make for very interesting blogging…).
