Fugakyu

Fuga-who?!  After the museum, we ate at a Japanese restaurant called Fugakyu. We didn't always know what we were eating, but it sure was tasty.

Chihuly: Through the Looking Glass

On Tuesday, we went to the Museum of Fine Arts. The special exhibit on tour was called "Chihuly: Through the Looking Glass." Dale Chihuly is the amazingly talented artist who created the blown glass sculptures at the Kohl Center.

Success!

WOW! Now that was fun! The whole marathon went really, really well and was a truly amazing experience.  I couldn't have asked for better weather - highs in the 50s with the wind at our back. Despite a little sunburn and a blister covering my entire big toe (not kidding), it was a huge success. My favorite part was running up to the ginormous Citgo sign and turning the corner at the finish.  I was so happy to see Kendra and Paul in Wellesley and the rest of my cheering section at Mile 21. I will be forever grateful for their support!

I hope to post a full report and photos soon.  But, we've gotta run - I mean walk - to continue on our gastro-tour of Boston. We're hoping to meet up with Katie and Jeff for some lobstah and chowda. Mmm!
