The penultimate day in Boston.

Today (15th August here) is our penultimate day of staying in Boston, USA. We are therefore packing up & weighing the luggages.
Weather here:---- It is still raining here from yesterday.  As per weather forecast, it won't be fair weather tomorrow even. In Kol., as we gather reports...... there had been much rainfall since last few days & the weather is not yet clear.
As regards our stay here in Boston....... I must say that the stay had been v v good in all respects. Yash & Runi looked into everything we might be needing and  we enjoyed our trips to various places thoroughly,  e.g  trips to New York, The Thousand Island Park,  Acadia National Park, Maine, Rye & Hampton beach and  several other places........along with them. The weathergods were kind to us  &  while travelling, we  experienced  but little or no  rainfall.
In Boston, we went to shopping centers and market places and  saw tit-bits of  business, marketing. The MBTA & the  Subway trains are wonderful in Boston----- we also had  a  Bus ride  (Up & down) once & liked the same.
The places of interest here like the  Museum of Science, the Natural History Museum, The  Boston  Public  Library  and  the Brookline Public Library (A branch), the Boston Common, the Prudential  Tower, the Hancock tower and  the  Harvard University bldgs. inclusive of  Harvard Medical School &  Dana- Farber Cancer Instt., the MIT bldgs. etc. ----- they  all provided us change of vision & mind.
Abou khana-pina...... though Indian vegetables and fish also were avlble. here, and Bou-di was never tired of cooking dishes........still, we tasted some other dishes also which provided us some diversion of culinary taste.
The city of  Boston itself is a nice city with a rich  & cultural heritage of its own and  epitomises freedom of speech and  thinking,   and also,  side by side, unfolds  in itself,  to become  a great  seat of  education and research,  day by day.
Anyway, we are now bound for home and  watching the Nature outside as it is raining more or less heavily.
