Day 6 in the Big Blogger House (Burlington)…

Cheers, Beers & Hooters
After discovering that the first picture of Cheers was a wash-out, it was decided that we should go forth and get a decent picture of the famous Bostonian bar. The city of Boston is rather like Manchester in it use of one way streets; something that caused great annoyance to our guide as he kept finding himself in the wrong lane, or just past a turn-off. I honestly don’t know how we got to the bar, cars from the left and right were dodging and weaving infront of us: at one moment I thought Eddie had closed his eyes to issue a quiet prayer.


After a wander through one of the parks in the middle of town we appeared outside the “Bull & Finch” bar and took a couple of photos of us underneath the “Cheers” sign.
This evening there was much more totty out on the street than the previous venture into town, however I think Eddie must have decided that taking pictures of them would have seemed too touristy.
After Cheers we were taken to another delightful bar in the Boston area… Hooters is considered a family fast-food/restraunt/eatery where the young serving wenches dress in white, tight, low-cut t-shirts and hotpants… The Edster was rubbing his thighs with glee… but only after finding out they served root beer. :-/
Be back soon…
