Adventure

After work me and a friend of mine went on a mini adventure. We walked to the orange line from Longwood Medical Area (LMA) to West Roxbury, where we got the T to Forest Hills. We then hopped on a bus to Roslindale and walked some more. We picked up her car which got some work done, then headed to JP for dinner at this Scottish Pub (The Haven). They were playing Scottish music and everything reminded me of Scotland. They had haggish (which I would never eat), minty mushy peas (which I had with my Fish & Chips like I did my first day in Edinburgh) and they had my favorite English beer... Innis & Gunn. I don't remember what type I had in Edinburgh, so I tried both the rum cask and the oak cask...they are both good. The rum cask darker than the oak cask....both have a high ABV. I think I enjoy the higher ABV beers. They are tastier, a little more expensive, but totally worth it. Plus, I can't drink too many...after the one, I was feeling it...after the second, I was having a hard time organizing my words in my head and getting them out of my mouth, LOL. I wish I had room for dessert, they had a deep fried Mars bar which I would have loved to try, but I couldn't even finish my meal [I think I only ate half my fish 'n chips which is a good thing I guess].

It was a fun night, catching up with a good friend. It was a gorgeous day out too, which made the adventure even nicer. And to make the night even better...I received my Pats ticket for the Pats vs. Chargers game next month and am watching them play their first preseason game! It's football season!!
