After Lunch at Quincy Market, we headed out for the Airport:
Quincy Market
Checked in at the Counters and thought this was interesting:
After heading through security, we headed to gate E1A where we noticed the reports about the Boston Marathon Attacks. Most of the group remained at the TV waiting for updates about the attacks the entire time we were at the gate. We each notified our loved ones that we were safe and sound. I tried not to think about the horrific attacks as I began spotting.
In Memory of those there that were there.
