Cousins Visit Part 3

Sunday we met up with another cousin, Kimn and spent the day walking through Boston, shopping, rode a swan boat and saw some of the Freedom Trail. We walked 11,700 steps! Later that evening I drove them to see Ally’s high school, Boston College and Boston University. On Monday their final day here we let them sleep in until almost noon, then we had pancakes and fruit and the kids walked up to Central Square with Becky and did a puzzle room. 


We took Ubers most of the time. And the cousins had never ridden in an Uber before! This was Sunday on our way downtown to meet up with Kimn for Boston shopping and site seeing.


We stopped for bubble tea and the teens were immediately on their phones.



We posed for photos after a much needed water and cupcake break.


We rode the Swan boats in Boston’s Public Garden.







Walked the Freedom Trail. 


Shopped in Quincy Market

Had lunch, Ramen at Wagamama.



And said goodbye to Kimn. It was the first time the 3 other Palmers had met their cousin Kimn. Pretty neat.

We got home, took a break and then I took the cousins on a driving tour to look at some local colleges and see Ally’s high school. It was neat to spend some time with them chatting and laughing. 


Monday the kids did an Escape room, they were successful! 


And then it was time to leave. I will say a memory for us will be eating lots of Fluffernutter sandwiches with them. Kaitlin is allergic to peanut butter so she spread Fluff on bread and ate it like that. It was fun.



And then they were off. 

Such a great 5 days with them.
