Carousel Rides & Balloon Flowers

We had a wonderful day with a visit from our grand daughter Nora!  We ate lunch on Boston Common, enjoying the cooler air, and then we walked over to the carousel where Nora had two rides -- first astride a milk white steed, and then aboard a very impressive dragon. Then we wandered over to the playground near the frog pond, and afterwards on the walk home, we bought her a balloon flower to match her outfit.  She loved it!  Mabel had quite the workout, chasing and being chased around the apartment.  She's sound asleep in her bed now!
