Last week was spring break for me, and we did head up to Boston for PAX East. But it was also the first stop on our week-long New England road trip, and we took in as many sights as we could over the weekend. It was our second trip to Boston, so we struck out in a different direction this time.
I recorded just the first 5 minutes of Wil Wheaton’s speech at PAX East in Boston last weekend. He gave a great speech, even if I only understood a handful of the references. He really inspired the crowd.
We got home from Boston late last night, and today has been a lot of catching up, catching my breath, and getting ready for spring next week. So here are a lot of random things to share:
Day 3 is really just heading home. It’s about 5pm, and I’m sitting on the Bolt Bus back to New York.
I finished my blog post last night before we went to dinner. So here are my last highlights from Boston.
Today was a quieter day. I had a completely packed morning, then I came back to the hotel after lunch and didn’t move all afternoon. I tried to go back out to see the Boston Public Library just before it closed, but the subways were too packed with convention goers.
Today was a good day, but man is it cold here in Boston. I wish I had my winter coat, but all I packed was my rain coat.
We took the T over to Cambridge this morning so Adam could go to a Microsoft event with Major Nelson. While he was there, I walked around MIT in the cold. It was actually snowing when we woke up.
We’re heading to Boston for PAX East (Penny Arcade Expo for the East Coast)! We went to PAX in Seattle last September and had a great time. Really, I wandered around the convention floor for a couple of hours and then flitted around Seattle the rest of the time. So I can’t say I was actually at PAX. But Adam assures me it was excellent.
