Sunday was Mother's Day. What a perfect day. I walked down Mass. Ave. in Cambridge and across the bridge into Boston and then turned left on Commonwealth Avenue. Commonwealth Ave. was designed to look similar to Paris boulevards and has statuary, memorials, and beautiful greenery (trees, flowers, park land). If you haven't taken a meandering walk along Commonwealth, now is the time to do it--it is absolutely lovely. Bring a book of poetry with you! (and maybe a picnic lunch-something French--a crusty baguette with cheese and grapes--wine--and fancy dark chocolate) By the way, Newbury Street is parallel to Commonwealth Ave., so when you finish on Commonwealth, you can easily walk to Newbury for boutique shopping and a hot stone massage or something equally decadent.
