aquarium & quincy market

It's school vacation week, and I took Hannah and pals Mikal and Conor in to Boston to visit the aquarium and grab lunch and do a little shopping at Quincy Market. It was a beautiful spring day -- still a little chilly near the water but great for sitting in the sun and people watching.

This lady seemed really fascinated with these balloons. Simple pleasures are the best.

Speaking of simple pleasures, there's a group for every kind of photo obsession possible on flickr. There are groups for people who like to take pictures of (among the thousands of choices) clouds, rust, fences, manhole covers, numbers, trees, food, reflections, hydrants, curlicues, and of course, signs. I'm glad Kyria and I are not alone in this amusing pastime.
