Our Trip to Fenway!


Shaun & I trekked out to Boston yesterday and we took in a Red Sox game at Fenway! This was the first time we ever went to a Red Sox game. We had pretty good seats in the Grandstand--Section 17 Row 13 Seats 3&4--the seats were in line with 3rd base and home plate and kept us dry as the mist fell on the field. It was a fun experience even though they lost 1-0 to Tampa Bay and a bunch of key players were injured like Manny and Big Papi. But in the 8th inning out walked Big Papi as a pinch-hitter--it was great to at least see him--the crowd was wild when he walked out of the dugout, but he wasn't able to help the Sox's much they still lost. It was fun but I'll admit that it's better at home watching the game on NESN--I love the comments of the commentators Jerry Remy "Rem Dawg" and Don Orsillo, but every Red Sox fan must experience the magic of Fenway park at some point in their life--seeing the Green Monster, joining in singing at the seventh inning stretch and the crowd of thousands cheering and singing "Sweet Caroline" at the eighth inning. It is awesome! :)
Thanks Aunty Valerie for taking Anneli while we were at the game! She had fun hanging out with you, walking taking the "T" with you, watching "The Little Mermaid" and sleeping on your bed! THANKS! :) She wants to "go to Boston again someday."
