A trip to Bean Town!


Early this spring Jon again got invited to the Internet Retailers Conference, an assembly of other businesses like G&L and many online marketing companies. Jon attended last year in Chicago as well, making excellent connections and learning a great deal. This year it happened to be held in Boston! After learning of this destination; I had to come!

Jon had never been to Boston, so we flew out a day early making sure to take in the Freedom Trail and other historical sites. During our visit we made sure to hit Sarah's Boston favorite - Mike's Pastries, for Jon's first Canoli and other indulgent treats! We also took in a Red Sox game and spent Jon's Birthday at a nice restaurant in the North End called Brico. It was delicious!


Jon spent his days in the conference with other "internet nerds" as I affectionately deem them and I spend time on Newbury street shopping! I was also lucky enough to warrant a visit from my Mom's dear friend (and my friend too!) Susan, who resides just outside of the city. Susan took me to the restaurant, Top of the Hub for lunch overlooking the city. Very similar to the Signature Room in Chicago, but better! It was wonderful to see her.


Even though this trip was short and mostly business oriented, we both left describing it as one of our best trips together yet!
