July 27th 2019: Butterflies and Arcades

Today, we started out with lunch in Westford at Seoul Kitchen, a Korean restaurant which has taken the place of Mangia Mangia, which I visited once a while back. Much nicer decor now in my opinion.

We got the Yaki Soba (Wok-fired noodles with beef),

which came with side dishes,

the Wings (spicy wings in spicy sweet and sour sauce),

the Eel Avocado

and the Green Tea Creme Brulee (house made with fresh cream, egg and green tea matcha) for dessert.

The noodles were a tad sweet at times, the wings and sushi were just so-so, but the worst disappointment was the dessert, which literally was half baked, the sugar not melted properly. Definitely not coming back again.

From here, it was on to the Butterfly Place in town, which definitely has more butterflies now than it did when I last visited it.

Next, it was on to Fun World in Nashua NH, which is just one giant arcade with not much for my little one to do.

Our final stop for the day was at Pheasant Lane Mall nearby, where our little one simply refused to sleep.

Glad he had lots of fun today though.

August 13th 2018: Nashua, Amherst, and Milford NH in the Morning

This morning, I passed through Nashua NH

Holts Pond, 76 Thornton Road 

to get to Amherst NH, where I went on a hike in the Ponemah Bog area, the path I took being shown below in pink.

At the first observation deck,

There were okay views,

but there were much better views of the pond from various angles,

with boardwalks lining the entire path.

Pretty nice hike overall.

From here, it was on to the town of Milford NH,

Cabinet Press

Historic Swing Bridge,
End of Bridge Street

McLane Dam, 23 Souhegan Street

Granite Square, 161 Bridge Street

Goldman Dam, 2 Bridge Street

Church of Our Saviour

St. Patrick's Church

Old Milford United Methodist Church,
20 Mont Vernon Street

Post Office

Milford Mill Apartments, 2 Bridge Street

First Church of Christ, Scientist

Bicentennial Park, 172 South Street

Old Railroad Station, 178 South Street

Milford Public Works

With that, I called it a day, passing through Brookline NH

Gazebo Square, 104 Route 13

and West Boylston

Mont Vernon Cemetery

on the way to work.

After work, I decided to grab a bite at Guiseppe's Sub Shop, an Italian sandwich place in Newton,

getting a Meatball Sub,

which was not bad, but nothing special.

August 10th 2018: More of New Hampshire in the Morning

This morning, while in Nashua NH,

First Church of Christ, Scientist

Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints

I visited Greeley Park,

then headed into Merrimack NH,

Harris Pond, 262 Manchester Street

Thomas More College of Liberal Arts

Greens Pond, 36 Greens Pond Road

Naticook Lake

going on a hike from 10 Al Paul Lane to find Bowers Pond, which I did at the end of the dirt road, although I might have been trespassing on a public water supply area.

One can view Harris Pond from here too on the other side of the dam.

From here, it was on to Amherst NH,

Honey Pot Pond

House of Faith Extension

River of Life Church

and finally Brookline NH

Melendy Pond

before calling it a day and heading to work.

After work, we decided to have dinner at the newest Chinese restaurant in Malden, One Pot.

We got the Beef Belly Skewer,

the Lamb Skewer, Beef Aorta Skewer,

the House Spicy Noodle Soup with Snail,

the Mala Fish with Rice,

and the Osmanthus Jelly for dessert.

I have to say the skewers are definitely the best I have had to date, and the spicy noodles and rice did the trick too. It was also interesting to try the jelly made using flowers, which tasted really good as well. Definitely worth coming back to again.
