Rainy Sunday

     

   
We didnt do much last weekend, but we did manage to get
out of the house. Friday was spent waiting and waiting and waiting for someone to show up, which didnt happen. We rallied and went out for a couple of beers and met up with
a friend that we hadnt seen in a while. His roommate's mamma cat had 4 kittens. I cannot wait to see!

Opening parade for HONK, Somerville

         

Saturday we did nothing, aside from TV marathons, and then rallied again for a bachelorette party. So much fun. No pictures, please.

Bundled up. So cold outside

Sunday, again with the not doing much, however we did get our butts up and out the door for a late start to the Oktoberfest in Harvard Square. This was coupled with the annual HONK festival that goes on in Somerville and Cambridge. New Orleans all over again, sans walking drinks. We really missed the walking drinks.

Drinks and Oysters. Slllooowww kitchen, really good drinks and oysters.

Let's take a walk

Took a bus ride actually. Planned to go to the Armory. Ended up hopping a bust to Harvard. Because the bus driver actually pulled over for us. He said, you're going to Harvard right? We weren't looking a gift bus in the mouth. Popped out head in a few places and nothing seemed to interesting. So we went to the Hong Kong.

Our nemesis must be defeated!

So after some lovely potion, we were off to see the Museum of Natural History in Harvard.

This is on the walk, not the museum.
The exterior of the museum is ugly.

This is pretty evil looking. It's called a Mastadon.
'The animal, not the greatest band ever,' Tyler corrects.

              

Hi, I'm a sloth. Want a hug?

Pretty sure Armadillo plating is going to be the next fashion statement

Um, hi, can I help you?            

Monkey Monkey Monkey Monkey!
Actually, these are apes.

Look at that honey badger. Honey badger dont give an eff!

That Lion thinks he's so awesome. Oooh, look at my mane, it's so pretty.
Oooh, I'm such a pretty lion.  He's right behind me, isnt he?

                       

Do you know the secret of these flowers?

 Everything you see here is made of glass!

This is only half of the museum! A lot more up there than we expected. More to go for next time - geodes and such. My amazing city orienteering dumped us out on Mass Ave and we walked up to Porter Square. Picked up a cab, and immediately succumbed to couch lock.
