Outside Darwin Ltd
I just spent a mid-November night in Cambridge Massachusetts where the weather was still perfect for brisk walking between the Harvard end and the MIT end of the city. Thanks to Google maps, I headed to "The Garment District," a warehouse space filled with used clothes and costumes.
I hoped to find a warm coat with lots of buttons and big pockets (mentioned in the previous blog entry) and/or an interesting cardigan sweater. I found neither, but I did find a Diane von Furstenberg silk dress (that I will photograph later) that fit perfectly. I don't need this dress, but I know that I can throw it in a suitcase because it weighs nothing, and I can layer it (it's rather sheer, so it will need something underneath it).
My walk around the residential streets of Cambridge was delightful. I picked up a Macha latte, oh how hip, at one of the three Darwin Ltds (I looked it up). The coffee smelled so good as I approached the entrance.
I loved the three color scheme in the bathroom. I like taking pictures of cool bathrooms. Cambridge is an expensive place to live, no doubt, but it remains a very liveable city, walkable and bikeable, with loads of front gardens, mature trees and colorful houses.
