Christmas Shopping on Newbury Street ~Thanksgiving Week in Boston ~Black Friday

There's no place like Boston's Newbury Street,

to spark the Christmas Shopping  Spirit.

Uber dropped us here,

a great place to start our Black Friday Shopping.

I love the vintage sewing machines 

on display in this shop.

There's something for everyone at Nike...

...and especially, if you are a Patriot fan.

Many stores set the mood

by bringing nature indoors.

This shop had the most creative merchandising.

We also made a couple stops in the

Prudential Center Mall.

We walked several blocks to a favorite restaurant.

I felt like I was on the set of a movie!

We were not from Northeastern University,

where Emily earned her Masters Degree.

We ate at Banyon Bar & Refuge.

The menu features small plates to share.

These are the Mapo Tacos.

We also had the Brussels Sprouts

and the Pork Belly Bao.

All delicious!

We were treated to a complimentary beverage.

This is called "Our Painkiller".

That is Coconut Foam on the top!

Our next stop, was right next door...

The Beehive.

It was a fascinating place with live jazz,

and it was packed with people of all ages.

Here we met up with good friends, Meaghan and Greg.

I enjoyed seeing them again.

This Black Friday was a great "kick-off" to the 

Holiday Shopping Season.

Thank you, Emily and Jake.

Take care,

~Natalie
