Day 6: 'Shipping Up to Boston'

The day started off with Dani "Timmy CC" Kaye rocking his beautiful janitors outfit, ready for what he though would be a day of hiking. There was a light drizzle in the air, so he thought he had the right idea. On our way to our destination we stopped at the local shady flea market, where there were 3 tents filled with garbage. There we started to lose R' Dan (Art) to a stomach bug. We reached a road block, having to turn around to drop him back at the house. Garth, starting his first day of full power, got us back on the road, to the unknown. After a 2-3 hour drive we reached Boston, MA. Guesses started flying... Basketball Hall of Fame, Red Sox game, tour of TD Banknorth Garden, Sam Adams factory. All wrong! After a short shpatzir, we met Chris of "Cashunt" who introduced us to our activity, a scavenger hunt around downtown Boston. We were split up into two teams, the Blazers vs. Nuggets (some how team bags and name tags were ready for us) and it was on. We were given a list of tasks to do that included taking pictures, making videos and finding hidden objects. There were strangers to meet and fools to make. Two hours later the scores were tallied with the Blazers coming out on top.

From downtown Boston we were supposed to head over to Harvard but had to pass due to poor weather and the fact that we were running late. Instead we headed to West Roxbury, MA to the קבר of the Rav. En route we said our goodbyes to Josh "Freddy Haynes" Brooks as he headed onto bigger and better things. After a few words on the Rav by Josh "Garth" Silverman we davened mincha.

From there we headed back to 'the General'  where a vote was taken - should we head home for dinner or stop at a restaurant. In the end the restaurant crew won and off we headed to Brookline, MA to Jerusalem Pita. After waiting to get in, due to the fact that they lost our reservation and set menu, the boys sat down to a hearty meal of gentlemen. From there we headed on the long trip home, ending another amazing day on Recharge.
