Friday: After a good nights sleep, I bought a coffee and yogurt while AA ate her dinner leftovers for breakfast.
We walked to North Station, bought a day pass (after asking for help) and caught the "T" to JFK Library.
After the library, we took the T to Chinatown and ate "Dim Sum" at the Empire Garden Restaurant (Ford and I ate there around 2006 or 2007, recommended by Tina Piper). AA wasn't impressed by the selection so ordered off menu, chicken curry (was very mild with pineapple chunks and green bell peppers). She did like the steamed pork buns, while I enjoyed dumpling soup (shrimp), fried shrimp wontons and shrimp dumplings. I thought I was getting something vegetarian but must have missed the explanations, we did have a person who spoke English but didn't really have patience for me! Several other non-Asian customers came in, and only non-Asian's had soy sauce at their tables (I asked for a hot sauce too which was good).
After lunch (it was after 3 pm) we walked back to the hotel and rested, ended up eating leftovers for dinner (used the shared microwave at the front desk store).
We watched terrible TV shows and slept well until the alarm at 6:05 a.m.!
Saturday: Time to catch our cab to Logan airport. We made excellent time, arriving at our gate just 25 minutes since leaving the hotel (drug sniffing dog and my Bakewell baking powder warranted a luggage search!). Flew back to (JAX) Fleming Island - Ford picked us up at the curb and we were so happy to see him!
