On Friday my mom, sister Donna, and I went down to Boston.

We went to see the Nutcracker ballet at my sister's request.

Then we walked down to Fanueil Hall and Quincy Market to get some chowdah.

From there we walked over to the North End to get canolis at Mike's Pastry.

Boston at twilight.

Even my mom had a good time walking around the city all afternoon.
