Boston - Gilmore Girls Style

Okay, so I know I promised I would write a blog post for every day of our trip, but the couple weeks following our trip have been busy with catching up with, well... life! And now that I've waited so long, I've sort of run out of steam.

Since I'm currently watching Gilmore Girls (and am obviously obsessed) I thought a Gilmore Girls Boston post would suffice. I had some lovely Lorelai/Rory moments on our trip that I'd love to share:

(1) CHILTON

As we were walking through Newton (the suburb of Boston we stayed in) we passed this school and I decided that it was Chilton... what do you think? Could be, huh?
Actual Chilton in Gilmore Girls
(2) HARVARD
Under the Johnston Gate! Not the prettiest weather :)
Harvard Squirrel! (Lorelai and Rory take a picture of one too... theirs is probably similar in quality)
(3) THE RENOIR GIRL
Dance at Bougival, 1883
Pierre-Auguste Renoir
Boston Museum of Fine Arts
Lorelai playing "Renoir Girl" in the Festival of Living Pictures

(4) B&B
Our room at our B&B in Provincetown. Not as over the top as Lorelai and Rory's room in the Cheshire Cat :)
(5) CAPE COD

We didn't actually make it to Martha's Vineyard like Lorelai and Rory, but we did experience the Cape, which still reminded me of the Gilmore trip. I can't embed this clip for some reason, but click here if you want Lorelai's lovely dialogue involving lighthouses, ferries, spermaceti and gay head: YouTube

And to conclude, here's a picture of Brad and I at a lighthouse!
