Back on North American Soil: Boston, MA

After leaving Hong Kong and a very long 13 hour plane ride to London and we hopped on a connecting flight to Boston.  

Ahem...home of the greatest baseball team in the world:  the Boston Red Sox; and, I admit this grudgingly, one of the best teams in hockey right now: the Boston Bruins (I can't believe I just wrote that).  *lol*

Anyway...after having been away from North America for about 5 months, we were both dying to watch a hockey game and what better way to do it than watch it live.  :)  

So we dropped our stuff at the hotel, took a quick nap, then hopped on the subway to make our way down to the 'new' Boston Gardens.  The real name escapes me right now...

I should add here that Boston was FREEZING!  *lol*  Then again, I only had a sweatshirt with a hood to keep me warm as we made our way down.

After grabbing our tickets and a quick bite to eat, we made our way to the rink and found our seats.  Then the game started.  I could tell Neil was pumped to be there; this was his team and they're off to a great start.  But following them over the internet is not the same as being able to watch them with your own eyes, live or otherwise.  I was just happy to be watching a game!

Anyway, Boston pretty much dominated the game.  They won it 5-3.  And they continue to hold the top position in the Eastern Conference of the NHL.  

Unfortunately, we didn't bring the camera.  There are a number of reasons why and we'll both agree to disagree as to why.  :)  (I still blame Neil for it!)

However, I managed to find a clip of some of the highlights of the game to take it's place.  After watching it, any pics we might've taken would've been put to shame by live coverage.  =)

So here is the link for all of you to enjoy watching we had watched!  *lol*  

I will leave you with one last message before I go:

GO FLAMES GO!!!
