Sometimes you've got to go where everybody knows your name

Second half of the trip consisted of a stop in Kennebuckport, Maine for a great lunch at the marina/shipyard. This is the town where George and Barbara Bush have a place. It is unbelievable. It sits right on the water out on a rocky point. It has water on three sides crashing on the rocks below. Very cool place.

So for the evening we did Boston on the go. After checking in at the hotel and watching the end of the Notre Dame/USC game we hopped in a cab and took off for Cheers. The outside is the only thing that was actually used on the show. The majority of the shots were on a soundstage in Hollywood and although it was a pretty touristy thing to do it was still fun to walk down the stairs to the basement bar. We had a few drinks and then headed to Legal Seafood for dinner. If you're ever in this area I highly recommend this place. It came recommended to us and did not let us down. The great thing about being in a city like Boston as opposed to the suburbs of Dallas is that things are open late into the night. We sat down to dinner at 10:30 p.m. that night and didn't think twice about it. I love that. There's something really cool about not getting up from the dinner table until almost midnight. Went to a club to play pool after dinner and then finally to bed for a few hours before catching a very early flight. All in all a great trip. It was my first time to New England and I'm definitely sold. We had a good mix of the fast paced city and the easy going backroads and country towns. If you get a chance to go there definitely take advantage.
