First off I want to say thank you to Sophie for filling in for me last week as i was gallivanting around Boston! What a better place to be on Independence day, amongst hundreds of thousands of other people? It was quite an experience. I've never seen so many people running towards fireworks - literally, I saw hundreds of people running through intersections (yes while cars were driving through them) just to get a closer and better view of the display. Quite fun though. On Saturday we went to the Harvard Natural History Museum - they had an amazing display of minerals, elements and gem stones. I've never seen a natural slab of silver as big as a huge serving tray, a quartz crystal about 4 times bigger than my head and other fantastic geological specimens. It was quite amazing. I took pictures with a friends camera, but haven't gotten any of them yet. If you ever have a chance to go there - I highly recommend it - $9 for hours and hours of looking at fun stuff!
