Bill and Bob's Memorable Vacation (Part 5)

On Wednesday April 11, Bob, Patty, and I attended the Big Apple Circus in Boston's Government Center.  It was in a big white tent!  There were horses, dogs, a pig, and some other unfamiliar animals.  There were no elephants, tigers, or lions in the show!  The "Mistress" of Ceremonies was a woman who reminded me of Kyle's Mom on South Park (Sheila Broflovski).  She sang a few songs!  The theme was about a machine that helped you to live out your dreams!  (Http://www.bigapplecircus.org)   With an intermission, the show ran about two hours!  It was interesting!

We then ate at Bertucci's Brick Oven Italian Restaurant in Boston's Faneuil Hall complex!  We had a pepperoni and mushroom pizza that included salad and bread service!  It was very filling!

We then walked back to North Station (under TD Arena, where the Celtics and Bruins play) to catch our commuter rail train back to South Acton!  Patty then drove us back to Lancaster, MA with a detour to Bolton Orchards!  Bob and I enjoyed small glasses of apple cider.

After relaxing, the three of us and Dan Sr. had dinner with Amy and Lester Gould in a log cabin in Lunenberg, MA (Near Fitchburg and Leominster).  We had roast chicken, carrots, homemade mashed potatoes, Passover Bagels, Matzo Crackers, Coffee Cake, candy, and macaroons.  It was a very unusual experience since most of my acquaintances are or were Catholic.  The Gould's youngest daughter Rebecca and their toddler granddaughter Lizzie (Mother: Jenny) joined us. 

After coming home, we relaxed as we packed for New York City!

There will be pictures in the future!!
