Charles street

this is charles street in boston, in the neighborhood beacon hill, with all its cute steep streets and pretty trees! only because the trees were blossoming, did i notice that many of the trees are really crooked, like this one, its forming an arch from one side to the other! when i took this photo, a little over a 2.5 weeks ago, i thought there was plenty of time to explore these streets a little bit more while the trees were blossoming... but as you know from my extensive complaining here, i was sick and didnt get out at all! :( today i got to go through charles street again, and all trees are green now, no more blossoms... :( (and im still not 100% better).
charles street is pretty nice, it has some fancy shops and restaurants, and at the end you get to choose whether you want to go to the boston common or the public garden.... (or neither one of them).

I haven't seen any blossom either, but just because I didn't feel like going out in the cold to watch a flower. I remember I had such a flu in the end of 2012. It took weeks to get all the water out of my head. Couldn't believe one could produce so much "snot". Well, it will ever end, keep going and get well. The street looks a bit like a narrow European street.

I agree with bieb. The street have a comforting home view.

It's pretty little streets like these that make cities livable to me. Nice shot with the people and their luggage.

Spring goes so fast it's easy to miss even if you're feeling well.
