A trip to Boston - Mom and Sons and the fun

 If you've been following my blogs, you're probably aware that I'm not exactly the most sought-after companion for Anand. He tends to prefer going just about anywhere with his dad rather than with me. But if you know me, you're also well aware of my for the city.


Lately, I've been discussing the idea of using a weekend train pass  for a day trip to Boston. Anand had his heart set on getting a video game from his brother, but Mr. husband wasn't too keen on driving all the way there for a game. As it turns out, Anand's desire for the game outweighed , and he eventually agreed to join me. Of course, I had my own condition, fully aware of his desperation to get that game—I asked him to learn about schedules, maps, and navigating subways with me.


So, early Saturday morning, we hopped on a train. I was pleasantly surprised to see how diligently he paid attention to the map, the timetable, and the connections. He is really good with Maps and locations and remembers them very well


 We took two trains and a subway to see Ajey. The lunch, the conversation, the donuts and brownies and of course the game was the highlight of the day. Our return journey mirrored the earlier one. We even took a break at the malls in the Back Bay area. All in all, it was a fantastic day. We had some great conversations, walked a lot and even enjoyed some music together.


I'm genuinely thrilled that I could introduce him to something new, and I'm sure we will be able to do some more stuff together.

I so wanted to go to the north shore but once we had the game in hand there was nothing better than going home. I played with the idea of sending him back alone and staying back in Boston but Mr Husband offered me a trip to my fav beach in the  evening. Here I was on a beach at the Cape watching the sunset while Anand enjoyed his game at home
