Wine, Bubbles and Beer on the Charles


I'm going backwards a bit, but I couldn't leave graduation week behind without a mention to 'Wine, Beer and Bubbles on the Charles'. Much to the disgust of several friends and I, prior to "WBB" there was to be no graduation party prior to commencement. Used to a much more celebratory mood in Australia and Europe we set about organising our own event. Thankfully the Boston weather prevailed and with some last minute catering help from our parents we entertained 80 graduating students, their families and friends on the banks of the Charles River. The wine flowed, the tunes hummed on the ipod and the weather behaved remarkably. A beautiful sunset and some Salsa dancing at the end of the night and all declared the night a success!
