Boston, MA (WE MADE IT!)
3.5 weeks and over 6500 miles later, we finally made it. We're in Boston. If you've been following the story you may wonder why we're not in RI. Greg's friend's he is moving in with are moving from Boston to RI, but have not physically moved yet. So we'll be staying in a small apt here in Boston with a bunch of people instead.
I had hoped I would have a few days before the madness began again, but I may be wrong. I am beginning to make my flight arrangements to Europe and I may end up flying sooner than I thought. Plus, it doesn't look like I will be able to fly out of BOS. I will likely fly out of JFK, so I need to account for the time it will take to get there. There is a cheap Bus that runs a couple times a day between the two cities though, so that shouldn't be a problem. All of this means I need to hurry and get my act together and prepare to leave the country. I have a number of lose ends to tie up and I'm sure it would have been smarter to tie them up before leaving, but there's no use fretting over what's past. Well, at least in this case.
I do not yet know what country I will be flying in to. I had thought it would definitely be London, but now I am unsure of that. There is a flight on Friday to Madrid I can take, but I am going to try for a later flight so I have more time to take care of business.
The American leg of my journey is over and it has been quite a trip. I've been to so many great cities and seen so many small towns. I've been able to compare city life with rural life on a day by day basis. I've met those on the right and those on the left. I've found myself frantically wondering where I want to end up when I settle down next. Do I want to be in a city and if so, which one? Do I want to be in the mountains or somewhere more rural? I am beginning to realize that this line of worrying is not constructive at this time. I have no basis for thinking one place is better than another at this time and I have no idea how the coming months will change my plans and/or opinions, so I might as well leave it open.
