Spectacle Island

On Saturday, Em, La and I decided to take advantage of the summer-like weather and travelled from our far-flung corners of Boston to meet at Long Wharf.

Spectacle Island

We got on the ferry and went to Spectacle Island, one of the Boston Harbor Islands. We spent a couple of hours exploring, taking pictures, gossiping, discussing our unique way of fabricating facts (it started in high school- one of us says something that they think they heard. Another repeats it. You've now heard it from two places, so it must be true.), and of course, dipping our toes in the water.

Seriously.

Three Girls

We ended the day with a glass of wine, Tuscan olives in rosemary-infused olive oil, and matching airbrush tattoos.

I love it when we're all in the same place.

  4. I love the dichotomy of the Tuscany olives and the airbrush tattoos. That's just how we roll. :-)

  5. @em indeed...selectively adult? It's crazy to see spectacle island as this verdant park. Last time I saw it, the trees were nothing but stubs, and the grass had hardly taken root on the Big Dig dirt.
