The Bike Ride

I think I had a post just like this on the Old World:Aaroneous. What is lost is never forgotten (most of the time). Anyway, as I previously mentioned, I went on an amazing bike ride with Blong. Here is the route:

First Stop: L'Aroma Cafe




My favorite coffee in boston. They have little plastic things so you can plug your to-go cup lid spout. I've never seen that technology. They also have an incredible bathroom and nectar you can put in your coffee. They also price their coffee, so your final bill will be an even dollar amount eg. Medium coffee- $1.88 after tax $2.00 They do no wrong.


Second Stop: Long Wharf






A beautiful lookout spot on the harbor. Has a big open in area for riding in circles on your bike and some sweet benches. A big group of women asked me to take their photo. I did such a good job, they wanted me in a picture with them! Too bad I don't have that picture...

Third Stop: Ernesto's Pizza



This picture is at the wrong pizza place. But I like the photo and it is here to make a point. Regina's doesn't sell pizza by the slice which is really annoying. So poo to you Regina's, Ernesto's is better.

I went to Ernesto's 2 years ago during orientation (with all international kids who wanted to sit in this dumpy pizza place for an hour and a half plus because that's how Europeans are). I forgot how incredible it is. The best pizza I've had in Boston. Plus, one slice = a quarter pizza! I got chicken, bacon, tomato on the man's recommendation. He knows his pizza.

Fourth Stop: On the Esplanade

Always beautiful. I don't really have to say more.




I remember now why Boston is a great city.
