Visit to Boston - Photostory

     We recently had the opportunity visit a church and my cousins near Boston, MA. We enjoyed our time there so much and had a great time visiting downtown Boston!
     On Friday night we went to the Quincy Market for supper!

     The Quincy Market was built in 1826 to provide additional shopping space as an indoor pavilion for vendor stalls. The massive building was named in honor of Mayor Josiah Quincy, who organized its construction and had it built, amazingly, without any tax or debt! (How politicians were different back then!) src: wikipedia

     Quincy market as it appeared in 1830:

     Today, the market has changed from grocery to gourmet/fast-food stalls. Both sides of the corridor are filled with the best food vendors in Boston! There are so many different choices here - absolutely amazing! I had the clam chowder and it was excellent!

     Once you finally decide what you'd like to eat, the center dome of the Market provides an wonderful atmosphere to enjoy your meal!

     Looking back outside, there are many new shops to visit.

     And even the old-fashioned Farmer's Market!

     As, it becomes darker, the beautiful Custom's House Tower stands at nearly 500ft and is viewable throughout the entire area.

      Of course, no trip to Boston would be complete without a visit to the Boston Harbor!

     We enjoyed our visit to Boston so much!  I would definitely give it a hearty recommendation!

Big G's Deli - Best Restaurant in Winslow Maine

This week I had a great time as I went out to eat with some friends at Big G's Deli in Winslow, Maine!

You could easily drive right by this little restaurant if you weren't looking for it, but oh, what you'd be missing out on!

It's set up as a classic Deli with friendly staff and so many choices of Sandwiches.  Their Claim-to-Fame is their freshly made, huge, gigantic, bread that they use to make their sandwiches!

I know this photo looks like an optical illusion, but it's not!  The sandwiches really are this big!  But, not only are the sandwiches enormous, the flavor is incredible!  The fresh bread combine with the best ingredients to make a meal that is so good, you'll wish you could actually eat the entire sandwich!

After you have your Sandwich (or half-sandwich) and French Fries or Onion Rings (which were also the best I've had in a long, long time; make sure to order a gigantic whoopie pie or cinnamon roll!   Again, so large you could split it four ways!

This is really a great place to take the entire family or spend time with friends!

But, be sure to keep your children close by your side, as warned by this sign posted near the counter!

What great food and a great experience!  If you are ever driving on I-95 through Maine, I'd definitely recommend that you stop in at Big G's Deli in Winslow, Maine!
