It’s Sunday morning and a beautiful one it is … Fall seems is on the way! Leaves will be changing colors before our eyes and smells of fresh-baked apple pies will be escaping from people’s homes. I also seem to miss being is school this time of year, I kind of miss buying school supplies and attending classes. Speaking of Fall, I am about to get ready to go to the Fall Festival being held on Hope Street here in the Mount Hope Neighborhood of Providence today. Hopefully I’ll have some pictures that I can post later. Enjoy the day!
Update: Well I don’t have any pictures of the festival today but there was only a small section of Hope St. that had been closed off. Outside on the sidewalk most of the shops and restaurants on Hope had tables and were selling various items. If you ever get a chance check out all the shops they’re pretty neat. There’s also various types of eateries like Blaze where I had lunch the other day. Me and my roommate walked down to Hope St. then walked down to Thayer St. after which has more shops and eateries. Most Brown University students hang out down in this area because of its location near the campus. Here we stopped and had pizza at Nice Slice which was then followed by some coffee from Starbucks.
Once we finished here we walked the rest of the way into downtown Providence and stopped at Providence Place mall. We checked out Guess, NY & Company, and Bath and Body Works. I only bought two of my favorite scented candles at B & BW ( Spiced Cider and Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin). We headed back home after the mall to meet up with a friend to go out to dinner on Hope St. We relaxed at the apartment before walking back over to Hope wherein I stopped into J. Marcel Shoes to buy a necklace I had seen when walking by earlier. We then had dinner at Apsara across the street.
When we got home we headed out once again but this time we drove over to Wickenden St. to hit up Coffee Exchange for a latte and dessert. It was a great day for a walk and some company. Overall, I got to walk 6.8 miles and part of it included one ridiculous hill to get to my street. A very productive day I must say …. Off to relax with some television before bed. Oh and congrats to my friends downstairs for their baby boy born this afternoon!!
