Opening Day

Hello.

How’s your week been? good we hope. As promised last week I made my way down to Fenway Park to take some pictures of the Red Sox home opening game. We didn’t have tickets for the game but it’s just a great atmosphere round the park and just wanted to be there. We wont be able to do it next year. It was great hearing the crowd cheer as each players name was announced. Then there was the usual flyover by four fighter planes which was pretty impressive. They always manage to fly over the stadium just as the national anthem comes to a finish. The Sox won 14 - 3 against the Seattle Mariners. The game started at 2pm, so loads of people took the day off work, many I suspect pulling a sicky. I didn’t hang around for too long after then cause I wanted to get back and watch Man U thump Roma. Which they did. A good day all round.


It’s the marathon on Monday and unfortunately we’re expecting some pretty crap New England weather for it. It’s definitely going to rain, maybe a bit of snow. It’s going to be cold no matter what. The finish lines just down the road so may make an attempt to get down there. We’ll see how bad it is. Really tired of the cold weather, would hate to be running 26 miles through it.

Em’s got the weekend off, we haven’t really planned anything for it as yet other than buying boxes to start packing some things up. Em’s gone through her wardrobe, pulling out all the stuff she doesn’t wear or doesn’t fit. Who would have thought moving to America would make us thinner. Walking off all those burgers and pizza you see.

Cheerio.
