Despite our best intentions to get up early to go to the Boston Museum of Science (MOS), we are on vacation and didn’t manage to get up too early. We also stopped for breakfast so by the time we got to the MOS it was 11:00 AM. And, because it was going to be a rainy Continue reading
Today is aquarium day! We got up early enough to have Dunkin’ Donuts today. We figured why not start off the day loaded with sugar and calories since we’d be walking a lot. As you can see, the calories I had for breakfast were almost as much as I was allowed for the whole day. Continue reading
Today we had a relaxing morning at Grandma’s house while she worked (so jelly that she gets to work from home everyday!). Then, we headed to Kowloon for lunch.
