Here’s the final post from my Boston trip! On my last day in Boston it was overcast for most of the morning, but that didn’t stop us from getting an early start to the day. After grabbing a bagel and coffee, we headed down to the historic old Boston (I saw lots more tourists here, compared to the other places we visited). It’s crazy to think that certain buildings have been standing for hundreds of years and I like to try to imagine what it would have been like back then.
Afterwards, we headed down to the Italian district of Boston to get some cannolis from Mike’s Pastry and we grabbed a quick bite to eat at Pauli’s. I had such a good time and I’m already looking forward to my next visit. Until next time Boston!

![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!

It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.

Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
[P.S. This is an old photo that includes a HarperCollins UK title, but please note that I support the HarperCollins Union.]

I hate it when it’s all dark and grey, but I bet your cannoli brightened things up! Was the line there out the door? it has been whenever I’ve passed by.
No, no line when I went! It was all very quick and efficient (and I love the way they use string from the ceiling to tie everything up!).
I know, remember when all bakeries used string? Now they all just use icky tape.
String is so much prettier than tape and you can reuse it!
Boston’s a cool city! I haven’t been there in a long time… I don’t get around enough any more!
You know I barely get around either! ;)
I’ve never been to Boston, it’s on my to visit list. Thanks for sharing these pictures!
ps. Love your hair in the braid, so cute!
Thank you Eli! It was fun to have a reason to tote around my camera and snap some pictures :)
You’re so cute and I LOVE that last photo!
Aww, thanks Jenmarie! :D
That romper is awesome! I need to get up to Boston to visit…so many of my friends speak highly of it!
Thank you Nikki! Yes, you should go if you get a chance- Boston is a great city!
