Ok, NOW it feels like I've got a cool job. I'm currently sitting in a pub in Quicy Market enjoying a Samuel Adams and a bowl of New England clam chowder. Now that's what I'm talking about! It's been since 2007 that I was last here but this place never changes and it feels like I was just here yesterday escorting my campers around.
I'm doing my own thing today as I didn't really know how to get here from the cruise port and didn't feel like having to deal with other people while off the ship today. It was a great decision because as a result I was able to FaceTime with mom and have a quick chat with dad with my newly purchased Skype credits. I've got time for one more beer and an email or two before I grab a coffee and start my way back to the ship before we leave. More later!
I can't get over what a beautiful day it turned out to be in Boston today. When we pulled in this morning it was overcast and rainy and then just before I got off work at 12 I had a Scottish couple asking if they could cancel the "scenic drive" tour they had booked because of how foggy it was outside. Speaking out of my ass I convinced them that the tour would be worth it regardless of the weather and that it was going to clear up in the afternoon anyway. I got lucky on this one because by the time I left the ship at 12:30 the sun had burned through and I very quickly realized that I wasn't going to need the hoodie and down vest I had brought.
Work this morning wasn't the greatest but I kind of saw it coming... Like I said yesterday, the eggs don't lie. The shells didn't cooperate and neither did my interactions this morning. Nothing serious but not nearly as awesome as yesterday.
I get to have a much needed sleep in tomorrow. I finished work at 9 tonight and I don't start tomorrow until 12!! Amazing. Means I won't get to see Newport but I'm sure I'll live. Maybe I'll get up a little early and get a much needed hair cut. :)
I figured out how to put captions under the pictures. Check em out!
