Boston-the Flat Touw Pawt 2

I woke to a most bootiful cwisp fall day,looked out my favowite window in the kitchen and sniffed the aiw..I just knew it would be a glowious day

Mommi discovewed a wondewful spot to stawt hew day..Agatha and Awchie's woof..a pawfect place to have hew mowning coffee and ummmm, that icky smokey stick


The sun wawmed, the aiw was fwesh, and you could smell the fiweplaces in the neighbowhood while biwdies said good mowning


you can see in all fouw diwections and Mommi loved it up thewe

she left evidence of whewe she had walked, hehehe..(you'd think wif all the mystewy books she weads she'd know to not leave footpwints)

meantime, Agatha and Awchie(in the faw pawt of the pictoowe) wewe having theiw own bweakfast
"OK, we'we weady to go " say the little nudnicks


thewe awe a billion wondewful buildings and it's hawd not to get a sowe neck swiveling and twying to see them all


finally, ouw destination..The Main Public Libwawy on Copley Squawe
(we had lots of enewgy, cause we had just finished big bowls of chowdew-xept fow some ,like Lacie who awen't piggies and only eat naked salad)

We all LOOOOOVE Books and this was a You nan ee Moos choice

hewe awe The DogmomsIn fwont of a Lady awtist statoo
Ewic's,Duffy'sLacie's mine, and Agatha and Awchie's


this is the view of the squawe fwom the steps


Aggie and Awchie's Dogdad is the bestestest toow guide in the oonivewse..he knows evewything!

up the staiws we went,
that cat is wathew lawge,but he was fwiendly,so ouw flat selves wewen't scaiwed



you wondew what the Mom's awe looking at?

the amazing moowals..some wif paintings of the most bootiful ladies,(obviously gowgeous tewwiew models wewe all the wage even then, hehehe)
just dazzling




looking down at the centwal couwtyawd
we decided it would make a pawfect doggie wun ,we just have to figoowe out how to get them to give it to us(along wif the building so we can all live thewe togethew, hehehehe)


if you look closely, you can see us westing ouw feets down thewe and having a little snackie(we had to make do wif what they had at the mooseum, I can't believe they didn't let Lacie plug in hew blendew aftew she lugged it all awound wif hew just fow such an occasion)


befowe leaving, I peecked into the main weading woom, and thewe was Awchie
he's such a vewy stoodious boy(I just love an intellectooal boy)

We had just enuff time to wun home,pick up the welentlessly hooge's Mom and meet evewyone fow dinnew in the Nowf End
What a gweat neighbowhood..non-stop Italian eatables evewywhewe

My flat self sat next to Mango's flat hoogeness(he was a vewy polite dinnew companion and a suwpwisingly delicate eatew)


Flat Lacie sat next to my baby Bwuvvew Flat Duffy but only had eyes fow the Mango

Mango was no match fow hew chawms, and even followed us to the ladies woom

latew that evening..Wiley joined us fow an aftew dinnew walk and wouldn't you know it..he fell fow hew too

Toffee weluctantly posed fow the camewas, but was most anxious to wun back to hew woom wif hew twoo love flat-Ewic Squawe dog, who had come all the way fwom London fow the occasion

It was a splendifowous Day, just as I knew it would be..we all dwopped into bed wif happy memowies and full tummies
be shoowe to visit Agatha and Awchie, Lacie,Duffy, Ewic, Toffe and Wiley fow fuwthew descwiptions of ouw adventoowe
smoochie kisses

Boston is such a great city to visit - Mom was from western MA but spent a lot of time in Boston when our human sister went to school near there. Looks like you all had a wonderful time. We have been reading about all the fun at some of the other blogs too. Wish we could join all of you one day.

What a wonderful time you are having! Great pictures. We felt like we are there with you!

Dexter said...

That library place looks HUGE and beautiful. Figures that Archie would by studying. He must take after his dad.

The rooftop looks a little scary. I am not sure even my flat self would have liked it, but all the buildings around A&A's house are most lovely.

Slobbers,
Mango

Oskar said...

It seems like the best day ever!

I especially love the picture of you on the mural!

TwoSpecialWires said...

Well. Since we couldn't join you as our own flat selves, you did a super good job making us feel like we'd seen the same places and done some of the same things. Great descriptions, Asta! What a incredible place and super way to wake up and start your morning. Those rooftop views were pawsome and we noticed that A+A have their own breakfast nooks just like we do. (We'd'duh fit right in!) And that trip to the library! The dogmoms looked like they were having a grand time. (Winston pressed his nose right up to the monitor to catch a glimpse of Foster Mum. Sent that picture right off to her, he did!) We go to the library all the time, but never get to get out of the car. You were INSIDE! And in such an amazing building! Gardens and terrier frescoes. Reading rooms (Archie is STUNNING! We can hear our Girl crooning now... "I want a boyfriend like THAAA-UHT!") Who was Lacie flirting with, by the way. Peeking around that column in a way only Lacie can do? It's obvious everybloggie and everydoggie had a great time. Lucky Toffee to be able to join your flattnesses. (We're glad her visit was short... Eric had come a long way to see her! We're sure they enjoyed themselves, too!)

What memories you'll have. What memories we'll ALL have, thanks to you all.

Love
Sissie Fergi and Bruvver Jake

Dear Asta,

You got to go to Boston? Geeze, you get to go everywhere! I bet you learned a lot of history while you were there?

You are a world class traveler!

We be envious!

Luv,
Riley and Star.

Looks like the library was spectacular, Mom loves libraries. Not the best place to take dogs she thinks, but flat dogs sure :)

Oh ASTA!!! What amazing weporting!!! I'm soooo glad ur mommi didn't fall off that flat woof...lotsa flat things this weekend!!!

Wasn't the library heavenly...we terriers certainly look like angels on those frescoes...looks like we're dancing like the nurses did, huh??? I was a little irritated bout the NO BLENDER rule at the library...honestly, it doesn't make THAT much noise and I've only caused 37 fires...sheecsch...

I hope Archie doesn't get eyestrain with all the reading he's been doing...he may need to get spectacles...

Speaking of reading, did you hear Eric got hungry on the plane ride home and ate part of Miss Enid's Eat A Cat book???? She's not pleased....

And yes, I have TONS of Mango Undies to sell...dunno what he's going to wear in the meantime???
Nuthin'???

Love and kissses to ya sweet Girl!!!

Sorry Asta...don't think that DATE with Babystan is gonna happen....not unless you want me to get a backhoe and lug him around????

You know, Mommy lived in Boston for eleven years and worked just a few blocks away from the Library (the first public library in the US) and never went in??? Did you go in the church across the square? It's gorgeous - she used to go there for their candlelight Christmas carol service. Don't know if it's still true, but for a long time, it was the only building that was always included on the list of 10 greatest architectural building in the US. Did you go to the Isabel Stewart Gardner museum, out near the Museum of Fine Arts? Your Mommi would LOVE it!

See you soon!

Your pal,

Petey
