Saturday morning we all had to get up bright and early for our Duck Tour around the city. We rode around town on an authentic, renovated World War II amphibious landing vehicle. The tour went through Boston on land for about 45 minutes, and then we literally dove into the water in the same vehicle for a water tour on the Charles River. It was a beautiful sunny day, but the breeze even on land was quite chilly at 10am!
Splashing down in the River....arms up!
Andre, Angela and Chas driving the boat...
Lizzy drove too but my pictures of her didn't turn out well.
After the Duck Tour we had lunch at the Prudential Center food court and did some window shopping. We met shortly after a few blocks away to get ready for our party bikes scavenger hunt. The bikes each had 5 people on them, plus the driver that came with it. You sit in a circle and all pedal at your own pace to move the bike. Contrary to what some think, the bikes are NOT motorized at all. I think all will agree that 2 1/2, and nearly 3 hours for some on the bikes was a lot of work!
Task: Have team members participating with a street performer

Katherine and the Sailors... :)
I know there are a ton of pictures out there from each of the 4 bikes, but I haven't seen them surface on Facebook from everyone yet! In other words, sorry I don't have some from each group!
After the Scavenger Hunt people went off their own ways and in smaller groups. I know many people opted to come back to the house and sleep...some until the next morning! It was a long day with a lot of activity.
Sunday was a day of shopping. Many people ventured down Newbury Street where all the top-end shops are. There are also places like the Gap but many of the places located are local places.
Monday evening the majority of the group went out to dinner for Erin's Birthday. I haven't downloaded those photos yet and frankly, I am too lazy to go upstairs to get my camera right now so they will have to wait for the next post...
Until next time-
Stephanie
