So, Dad, how did you like the iPad we got you?

You don't need the video translated. Just watch. This happens to ring true in our family, so I especially enjoyed. it.

Highlights of our night in Boston without the kids

We stayed at the Hotel Marlowe in Cambridge (just around the corner from the Science Museum) - great 4 star hotel that I'd recommend.  More whimsical in decor than modern, but lovely.  The robes made us laugh so hard we felt that we needed to share this picture.

Many FB friends recommended we stay at The Liberty but they were booked solid. The building is a converted prison and very cool. We ate at Clink, one of their 3 great restaurants (Clink, Alibi, Scambo). The food was wonderful and the atmosphere very hip.  The hotel was packed with nightlife.  Next time, we are staying there for sure. [Thanks, friends, for the recommendations!]

On Sunday morning, after a leisurely breakfast and walk along the river, we stopped by the galleria for some quick shopping.  We couldn't pass up the very crowded Apple store.  Playing with the iPad, we saved my blog and website to all the iPad home screens.  Now that's what I call guerrilla marketing!

It has been hard to get back into the work mode today.  The weather is beautiful outside and I'm not feeling very motivated.  I do plan some fun posts this week:  kimonos, outdoor spaces, and perhaps a how-to (if I can edit some footage).  Today, you'll have to forgive me for being a bit self-indulgent.
