Trip to Boston this weekend, to attend a AAA Baseball game - not that I am a big fan of Baseball but it was a warm and sunny day, and family time is always nice. And... I had brought decent food (that I had to eat before entering the stadium because bringing food is not allowed...) my camera and a great book - thankfully, that was allowed! ![]()
At first, we were seated in a section of the Ballpark where seats were more tiny and uncomfortable than economic class airplanes' and from where I could not see much because of a pole that was on my way - am I lucky or what? LOL
Not to mention the continuous hearing-impairing screaming of an over excited crowd, and the overwhelming smell of greasy foods mixed with beer/tobacco breaths...
Needless to say that I was pleased when in the middle of the second game Mister Tricotine announced that he would like to see the game from another angle! We moved to the very opposite side of the Park that was actually less crowded, and in fact the game was more enjoyable from there - except for Mister T who mentionned that it was difficult to see the ball. Other than that, seats were more comfortable, the area was quieter, and the air was more breathable.
Probably because it is farther from the action, seats in this area of the Park are cheaper, but I like it better because I think it is more family friendly, especially with young kids; games are sooooooo loooong... and little legs need some activity.
And... For the low-interested-baseball-audience that I am, it was also more fun to "play" with my camera under an open sky! ![]()
