Back in Hudson to finish the trip of a lifetime (Our last post, sob!)

With only a few days left in America we decide to spend our time wisely by raiding the local T K Maxx for bargains to take home and eating and drinking as much as we can fit in. It's nice to be here to celebrate Katherine's birthday with her and we're definitely in the good books after buying her a spy watch and a tent. 

On our last day it's time to make the most of Chris and Tricia's fantastic garden and we take the boat out on the lake with a couple of beers and Christine wrapped up tightly in a life jacket. We don't see any animals but it's very relaxing and we could stay out here all day...if there was a toilet on the boat that is. 

James cooks for Chris and Tricia as a thank you for all that they have done for us and we chat into the night before having a few beers in the local and calling it a night. Awwww. 

The next day and it's time to go home. We say goodbye to Tricia and Katherine and Chris kindly takes us to the bus stop so that we can spend our last few hours in Boston. We have been asked by our friend Roosa to view an apartment for her in the Cambridge area which we are happy to do as we wanted to see Cambridge anyway. It's a lovely area and we call in to the Mexican restaurant that seems to be a tradition for the Lambert family when they are in Boston. It is one of the best meals we have had and Christine manages to clear the whole plate for the first time since being in America. The huge margarita's are worth a mention too ;) 

We meet Chris at the airport to collect our bags (seriously Chris, you are brilliant!) and say our goodbyes. A great way to finish the trip, goodbye America!
