Catching a Cab

A couple of weeks ago we went to Boston to support Missy's brother who ran in the Boston Marathon, which by the way he ran in a great time.  We got to do some cool stuff while we were there and saw a lot of things that you don't get to see in Utah.  The first night we were there we all went to a Boston Red Sox game.  Fenway Park is awesome and the game was fun.  It started to rain a little bit in the 7th inning and it was already a little cold so it was even colder once the rain came.  Missy was a good sport and we stayed until the beginning of the 9th inning before we left.  It wasn't until we tried to catch a cab that the real fun began.  There we quite a few people trying to catch a cab and we couldn't get one forever it seemed and being cold and wet and running around didn't help either.  We finially saw a cab that was stopped so we ran towards it and realized that it was pulled over by a cop ha ha.  So we were still on the hunt.  I thought that we should just stay and wait until the cop left and try to get that cab but we thought we saw other cabs stopped so we ran over there and they already had people in it so still we were on the lookout.  After a while we saw a police officer directing traffic so we asked him were to go and he pointed us down this street.  Well as we are walking some people get out of this cab so before I know it Missy is sprinting after this cab to try to get it and it drives off so Missy stops but wait the cab stops at the stop sign so before I can even blink Missy is half way down the street trying to get the cab drivers attention.  I started to run to catch up with Missy but she was too far ahead of me.  In my head I was thinking there is no way that she will catch that cab but I stood corrected.  She did catch the cab and  I still don't know were all of Missy's energy came from but holy cow she was hauling down that street.  We got in the cab soaking wet and were relieved to know we would be back at our hotel and be warm again.  That was just one of the many adventures of Boston and we had a really fun time.
