Boston, MA [Monday Evening]

The sun may be setting and the weather cooling by a few degrees, but that didn't mean there wasn't still plenty to do in the city!

We're spending the week at the five-star/five diamond Boston Harbor Hotel. Hotel luxuries include a private health-club style spa and fitness center, award-winning dining, and a full-service 34-slip marina.

Students' deluxe rooms have windows out over downtown Boston, and their chaperones' premier rooms have views out over the marina and into Boston Harbor. The rooms come equipped with all the amenities and two full beds or one king ~~depending on which is funnier~~.

[OOC: Room assignments are here, NSFW goes into private journals, yada yada.]

After his two different tours through trauma today, Jon was feeling just a little better, the edge taken off his hunger. Which was good! He was happy that it probably wasn't enough to give anyone nightmares. That was a good thing, even if he did have to keep reminding himself.

He still wasn't sure how much sleep he'd get himself. Which...might also be a good thing? Irene this evening had presented him with a very nice, utterly foreign to him, silk sleep mask. Because apparently some people didn't appreciate roommates that slept with their eyes open. At least she hadn't called him "spooky".

Steve had run a marathon today and while he, yes, basically did that every weekend, he didn't do it in a decadent hotel room with room service where he was happily ordering all the things and trying to find a movie to watch.

Well, you definitely won't starve this week, even if you never leave the hotel. Rowes Wharf Sea Grille offers breakfast, lunch, and dinner with both indoor and outdoor seating. Its afternoon tea is also extremely popular. You can also go for drinks and snacks at the Rowes Wharf Bar starting at 4pm. Or you can stay up in your room and order in. Tonight, the Sea Grille is preparing a Thanksgiving feast for any Canadian students and staff! (And for everyone else because Thanksgiving food is amazing.)

Anakin wasn't from this planet but he adored Thanksgiving food and thanks to years of practice with the Gilmores, was prepared to put a significant dent in the pies-and-carbs tables.

Belle hadn't been around for a Thanksgiving of the Canadian or American sort yet so she wasn't sure what to expect but she did love a feast. This was almost certainly not going to be an exception.

On every trip Kitty had to post up at the bar to try a local drink. It was tradition.

It was a little different when you were just in Boston, which also had the bartender googling and looking up whatever was in a Ward Eight?

Jo had never taken part in a Thanksgiving Feast before, even though she’d already taken part in a chocolate tour today, she was still going to try some of the food that was on offer.

Whether its the 60-foot lap pool, the Pelaton bikes and yoga classes you're all dying to try out, or the spa, the hotel has your fitness needs covered. The gym [/color">is open 24 hours, which is very helpful for you insomniac health nuts.

You're on your own to find restaurants and clubs and bars, but the school has set up an event a night if you'd rather stay with the group!

Who wants to learn about the Boston Strangler? At least a few of you weirdos, right? Right.

Jon was feeling only a very little better after his afternoon tour, so here he was again, hoping for some nice, tasty trauma, like the awful voyeur that he couldn't help but be.

Goose worked in law enforcement so he was more curious than anything about learning more about the history of crime in different places.

List it in the header so we can join you like stalkers!

Alara hadn’t planned on searching for a restaurant since she’d been out for a walk to explore the city but had ended up on an uphill path that led to the restaurant she was at.

She hadn’t gotten that many stares either as she was given a menu and some recommendations on what to try since nothing was familiar to her. So that was how she’d ended up trying buffalo fried Brussel sprouts.

Happy Thanksgivaling! To the... none of you besides me who are celebrating it today.
