We get off the plane and we are excited about the warm and sunny 80 degree weather. We check into our hotel, that we booked through hotels.com, the Hotel Beau Rivage. Located at 24 Rue Saint Francois De Paule, it is minutes from the airport, and just steps away from the beach and shopping areas. […]

I sometimes forget about the Parish Cafe, but every time I go back-I remember how much I love it there. Located at the end of Boylston Street, just steps away from Newbury […]

We just came back from a 2 week trip to Europe. I may have been the only one of the plane who wasn’t able to sleep…needless to say, for someone who is noise and smell sensitive….it was a VERY long flight! First stop, London, where we stayed at the Bentley London, a Waldorf Astoria Hotel. […]
