| Some shops in this mall.
| We grabbed slices of pizza from the Pizza Factory for a mid-afternoon
snack. One normally thinks of buying pizza by the slice as being a fast
transaction, yet this was pretty slow.

Christ.

|
| Christina's (Cambridge, Massachusetts)
|
|
| Assorted ice creams and sorbets from Christina's. My pumpkin one was

left most of it.
