All in a day but it was much longer than that...PT 2

After attending the first half of the field-trip I managed to escape barely with my eyes open. Realizing as great as history is , I never really like the 1500 era or anything that had to do with the "Declaration of Independence" We make it down towards Quincy Market. which is located in Downtown Crossing right next to City Hall. It is a local tourist attraction although locals can't help but be attracted to it as well; but who can blame them with all the eateries, shows, and events, the random performances, name brand stores, and beautiful view of the Big Dig Bridge. If you are there on Fridays and Saturdays you can enjoy the beautiful and wonderful world of Farers Market. Where you can buy fruits and Veggies for a dirt cheap price. Being drawn back to the reality that I was in a field trip and I had to chaperone my students I draw their attention to a large statu of Sam Adams. I get them to gather there for a class pic, I get them to make space so we can see the name"Samuel Adams"; I salute this for the great beer it produces and my students have no idea what I am doing. After a couple of snapshops and silly pics. We are then led by an enticing aroma of high fructose and fried goods towards the food court. As we open the large glass doors to see a vast hallway of fast food; stunned in amazement we had to get the students to move but once we had their motors running we lost them. Literally no more than 2 seconds later we had not one of out students in plain sight.
My co-worker and I decided to then do the same, walk around and see what to get to eat. Your mind tends to wander as you walk around picturing yourself eating everything you see, trying out the different flavors.hmm just the thought of it makes me hungry. From time to time you do hear that voice of reason telling you 2 things"You're gonna get fat" and Its to pricey. I ended up getting some low mein from an everyday chinese fast food joint. Which surprised many of the students with us even the Chinese ones because they never thought I would know how to use chopsticks..because they cant use chopsticks. In the end looking at all the people wandering around, not paying attention to their left or right, aimlessly bumping into people I realize a few things. One being how much I wish you were there with me to people watch, enjoy local fast food not matter how pricey or greasy it is and too take pictures of the distracted people who are walking around. I miss you.. I love you
