I went to Boston for the 4th of July to spend some time with Aatman, and to celebrate our anniversary and his birthday. (He's in Boston, on a very demanding month long medical rotation.) We knew the trip might find us right across the street from each other with no real contact, but we made a couple of hopeful dinner reservations anyway.
Because I wasn't sure we would see each other much, I had planned a walking tour, solo brunch, a visit to a museum and to the library... but, then, Aatman was let out of work early on the 4th and we were able to have the most magical anniversary celebration together! We had an amazing brunch at the Tip Tap room, went to Faneuil Hall to see the street performers, and wandered around the water front district, ending up at the aquarium for a few hours which included seeing a great IMAX film about sharks. Our anniversary dinner was at one of Aatman's favorite sushi restaurants, and then we got back to my hotel to find the best private view of the fireworks we could've possibly asked for.
Aatman's birthday is on the 6th, but we planned to celebrate it on the 5th because we knew he'd have to work on the 6th (and, my return flight was scheduled on that day). He was let out of work a bit early on the 5th as well (!), so we wandered around Charles Street, hung out at the bar at the Liberty Hotel (which used to be a prison and is now a luxury hotel), and then we went to a really nice Italian dinner at Grotto. :)
I also ended up with some solo time, so I did the walking tour, saw the library, checked out the esplanade and wandered the charming streets of Boston a bit on my own.
It was a short trip, but it was perfect. :)
