New Haven, Boston, clam chowder & lobsters!

We took a bus from NYC to New Haven to visit HL's friend, Kailun, en route to Boston.

New Haven is the first planned city in the US, and it is also the birthplace of the Frisbee and the lollipop (not sure how true that is - did not see any Frisbee or ate any lollipop there! :P) It is also the place to eat the "world's finest pizza" - although we didn't get a chance for that too (instead, we had really good Malaysian food for dinner on the only night we were there)...

Kailun brought us around Yale University and its campus - it is a very beautiful place - old and rich with history...

The next day, we took a bus to Boston, the largest city in New England. Our hotel was pretty awesome, right in the city! We wasted no time in checking in and heading out sight-seeing! I will let the pictures tell the story:
