So we're getting close to being unpacked, but not unpacked enough to take pictures. So enjoy these instead!
Looks uber-urban, right? Maybe the rough blacktops of Boston... It's not, it's actually in Southampton (where Justin's aunt, uncle, and cousin live), but we had you going.
It has been raining a lot, and we have yet to buy an umbrella. Instead, we got wet.
When we moved to Boston, we got a great rate on a one way rental. We ended up using it as our moving van as well. Pretty sweet moving van, no? Pretty hot.
But that's not the only thing hot. We've been pretty hot in our apartment. How hot you ask? Our toilet is sweating hot.
But enough of the inside, here's the outside of our apartment building. The three windows at the very top are the outside of our living room that we posted last week.
If we hadn't recently been in India and Egypt, we might think Boston is the worst city to drive in. Pedestrians crossing whenever and wherever, drivers stopping in the middle of traffic and putting their hazards on, and roads originally designed for the width of one-horsepower vehicles. This intersection right next to our building is another example of a civil engineer who is no good at their job.
Also, you should show respect to all!
Some of you may have heard that Justin got a job at Prospect Hill Academy teaching 7th and 8th grade math. Located in Somerville, this charter school is just under 4 miles from our apartment. He'll be teaching 3 classes with around 75 students.
This might be Justin's classroom. Or one of his classrooms. Due to space constraints, all the teachers have to rotate classrooms, but with only 75 students, who can complain? For a little perspective, if he was teaching at a public school in Austin, he would probably have 5 classes of about 25-30 students, or somewhere between 125-150 students.
And back to the clouds. Do you see the three A's in the sky?

unh-uh, you're not getting me to fall for the 'can you see the a's (monkeys) or how many a's (monkeys)' are there thing again. i never got my monkey. customs? yeah, right.
i had a typically witty comment, but after the tirade, i forgot it.
oh, yeah: worse drivers than austin? i think not.
cutecutecute apt bldg. hot red car (really?)
don't make me do math again...
So excited to see pictures from you guys!!!
You realize of course, that you can show us pictures of anything and we would never know the difference if it was not the real deal!
The exterior of that school cries out: Make a movie here! Make a movie here! Or at least shoot a transitional scene!
i'm kinda surprised the shot of the weird traffic intersection, didn't have justin out there, directing traffic. seems like someone needs to do it.
y'all could do another of those weird perpective pictures (like the one holding the sun or the one where you saved the tower of pizzas. point out the apt or put a big pictures of j2 in the window and then take a picture. just trying to help...
:)
when does school start-for both of you?
It's like you have your own little Times Square.
