But first- the science museum! This place was engineer heaven for our nerdy bunch. Everyone's favorite part was something we saw 15 years ago when we came- the electricity demonstration!
Ellen wants to reenact this with her gerbils
After we were scienced out, we headed to the USS Constitution ship and museum. Below is everyone's favorite part:
Natural-born Perkinses can be identified from behind
To add some much-needed context, this is near the Constitition, where we looked in the water and discovered a horde of jellyfish! Naturally, this required a full stop.
Look at those guys! Kind of peaceful to watch, really.
Back on track, we headed to the ship and museum. When we came to Boston 15 years ago, we got a picture of Nathan doing push-ups aboard the ship, so that reenactment had to take place.
Nathan needs to go back to push-up school.
I don't think school will help with this one.
Ok, so now we're finally getting to the Caitlin's birthday part. To celebrate, we walked to Al Dente, a restaurant on the Italian northern end of Boston. The food was great, accents were thick, and we could be as loud and annoying as we wanted, because the whole place was also loud and annoying. #cityprobs
Today, we're loading up the Perkinsmobile to drive to Maine to do some Mainey things such as: eat lobster, see lighthouses, and wear nautical stripes. Okay, maybe that's just me doing the last one...
