Boston T Party

Perhaps you've heard of the Boston Tea Party? Well, coming up is the Boston T Party.

In case you weren't aware, the public train system in Boston is called the T, short for Trolley. Now, a group is hosting a mad tea party, a la Alice in Wonderland, on the T. What a lovely pun! So far there is no date, but you can click here for more information.

Diversity of Tea Drinkers

There is no stereotype of teadrinkers, thankfully. Anyone can enjoy the beverage without censure. However, sometimes there are groups that you maybe don't expect to be quite so into tea.

I personally, would not have equated Harley Davidson fans and tea. Granted, I don't know anyone with an interest in Harleys, so I have limited knowledge.

Red Ballon Days, an Australian provider of various adventures, they combine a ride on a Harley Davidson with high tea.

This forced me to rethink my own stance, as I am an avid tea drinker, and I do wish I lived in Australia and could experience this for myself.
