First things first...
1. Red Sox ball game. Fenway is an American classic. The oldest stadium in the majors and lot's of fans with fun accents. When the short stop missed an easy catch, the guy next to us informed everyone that "Nom'a would'a caught it". Watched Pedro pitch the entire nine innings w/ 10 strike-outs. Red Sox win, 6-0. Unfortunately, Don Zimmer wasn't there for Pedro to throw around.
2. After the game excitement. Had to sit and rest a bit, so what better way to do that than go see a movie. And not just any movie. Napoleon Dynamite
Fenway
. Now when anyone asks me what I'm going to do today, I simply answer, "Whatever I freak'n wanna do, gossshhhhh". Great flick, I reccomend it to all.3. Dinner, great Indian resturant in Back Bay, and then had Martinis on the 54th floor of the Prudential Tower.
Next Day (Friday)
Slept in, and then went to mess w/ the smat kids down at havad. Nice campus with lots of brick buildings and domes. For some reason the smat kids think its wicked cool to wear their polo shirt collars up, so I got my picture in front of the Law School w/ my colla up.
Next, off to the mandatory Klenske vacation trip to the old Brewery. (We've seen Coors, New Belgium, Estes Park, Guinness, Budweiser) and now Samuel Adams. The tour was great. Short and to the point...that we all wanted our free samples. They passed around three types, and all were great. Then we went to the bar to get our complimentary glasses rinsed, but the bartender rinsed it w/ another beer. And then for some reason we were "chosen" to partake in the heavenly concoction of a drink that was 50 proof, and no it wasn't a shot, it was actually a beer. Smooth and strong. Good old Sam Adams...
