Traveling. Summer. DAY ONE (but kinda actually two).

What a day.

Today has been one heck of a day. Heading into Chinatown at a solid 10am, T. and I made it to yum cha with plenty of time to spare. It was delicious, as always. But we made a bit of a mess...

After that, we headed to Tremont St and absorbed some window-shopping in the sunshine of the desolate street before asking the locals for the best shop for icecream. "Picco" was the place to be, we were informed, and so we went.

It was amazing.
We had cinnamon, passionfruit and dark chocolate. All highly recommended.

Then we headed to see "Hotel Nepenthe", a fabulous performance complete with the original cast. Great show.
We then headed back towards home to meet up with a friend, grab some more icecream...
