FREEDOM!

Quick visit to Hahhhhvahd to see the little sis, starring role in some extremely avant-garde theater: MNEMONIC. They give everybody an eye mask and a leaf upon entrance...Beauty and the Beast it is most certainly not.

But with an open mind it was a well-done performance, thanks in no small part by the female (or is it male?) lead: "played wonderfully by Madeliene Bennett, '11." (So says the Harvard Voice) (I couldn't agree more)

Below are a few snaps from the Freedom Trail, which is a fun tourist activity for a nice Boston day -- which we were fortunate to enjoy on our late Oct. visit. The best is Selin (pretending to) proclaim the Declaration of Independence at the Old State House...the same spot it was first proclaimed at 1:00 PM back in 1776. (To jubilant crowds, nonetheless!)





We've since moved on to a much more tropical, much more beachy, and much more intermittently internet-connected locale...more to come at some point, when I feel like waiting 15 minutes for 5 pictures to upload. 

Goodnight from paradise*!

*Just one of many.
