Happy Fourth!

How was your Independance Day? Ours was fairly lowkey. We had my mother-in-law over for dinner (Greek Feast!) and then we ate Lemon Bliss Bundt cake topped with berries and whipped cream while we watche Enola Holmes. We saw fireworks in a lovely little park overlooking the water and could see multiple fireworks shows from our vantage point!

I made Ina's Blueberry Crumb Cake for our Finer Things Knitting Club this evening.

Where's the View?

We had to crane our necksout of the window of our second hotel to see the view, but it was worth it!

Hotel Gyms

The boys in our family have been working out a lot at home for the past few months, so they were pleased that they could continue their workouts on the road!

Holy Cross Greek Orthodox Seminary

For Saturday night church, we went to Holy Cross Seminary. The church's architecture was breathtaking and it was so good to hear Byzantine Chant again.

Tour of Historic Boston Harbor

Wentworth's Quarters

These are the Captain's quarters of the USS Constitution and they reminds me so much of one of my favorite books, Persuasion.  I could see Anne and Captain Wentworth honeymooning in there rooms.

I am interested in seeing the new version of Persuasion coming to Netflix next month. It will probably not be something that I love, but it is nice that they tried.
