Thanksgiving! Last year, Thanksgiving was a bit too busy for me to fly back to the United States… classes, and general insanity, conspired to keep me in Dublin. Which, frankly, was a perfectly lovely time with friends and classmates. 2025, however, had none of those challenges… and thus, saw Andrea and I winging our way to New England for a well-deserved holiday…

I adore the Boston Museum of Fine Art.

I went so often as a kid, and had so many little favorite spots, that it holds a special place in my heart to this day – regardless of how far away I may live. Being able to share some of that joy and excitement with Andrea was a goal for this trip, and it was a goal we successfully achieved.

We popped in on our own, wandered, and explored.

We found the model ship exhibit, Andrea saw the traveling exhibition, and goggled at the unexpected dollhouse. I adored the landscapes, and we enjoyed taking our time to explore… and to share opinions and appreciation.

Yeah. I like the MFA.
