Today I finally was able to cut out some quiet hours. I grabbed my well used camera and started an easy city stroll. From my yet poorly furnished apartment I walked over to the Charles River, over the BU Bridge and through the Boston University campus.

The trees are featuring bright fall colors, well known across all New England as the Indian Summer.

And for Starbucks. Here are the photos.
