Boston: Part 1

Boston from the air:
Home of Boston Red Sox: Beautiful brick architecture of Boston:
Seriously, its brick architecture everywhere...:

MIT:
Carolina was our tour guide. She is a friend of Ching Hei's second cousin, Anna.
MIT future student?:
Under the dome of the main hall:
Day-dreaming that it could be my school:
I look like I am so at home, no?:
Oh, we found this little gem by accident:
Our first thought was, "This is so Frank Gehry."
"Looks like his 'dancing buildings'..."
"Metal cladding reflecting glare and intolerable heat..."
"Funny angles..."
"Oh... wait... This is Frank Gehry's work!"
Carolina in the centre:
Interestingly, he uses brick too:
Along with more metal and glass claddings:
More of MIT campus:
