  • Favorite Thing: This is not my favourite thing but it certainly makes interesting research into what it was all about!

    The Modern City Hall

    There is definitely a bit of a contrast here!! The aesthetics of modern architecture are often a mystery to me and so I may be missing something here, but this building seems a bit of a monstrosity . I presume the building is functional and was probably designed by some famous architect with some higher artistic vision than mine, but sorry this place does nothing for me whatsoever.

     Interesting and amusing to read about your stop over in Boston - an excellent page, John!

     We'll probably be getting a car (although I understand that parking is nuts) because we'll be heading to Wilmington on Sunday night. St. Patty's day in Boston! Sounds pretty wild.
