Around Boston | Who Knew Concord Was This Charming? 🍂

🚗 A 30-minute drive away from the hustle and bustle—and the forecast’s “cloudy” was totally a lie! The sun shone gently all Saturday, instantly lifting my mood～ 🍽️ For lunch, we chose Helen’s Restaurant. We originally went for their French Toast, but we just missed the Breakfast Menu (bummer! 😂). Instead, we ordered Chicken & Waffle, Salmon Bowl, and Street Taco—and they were way better than expected! There are also tons of other restaurant options in town if you want to explore more. 🛍️ Wandering around the town felt like stepping into a hidden gem. Cute little shops and vintage stores are scattered everywhere, each with its own unique vibe. The owners have great taste, and their selections are so curated—seriously fun to browse 🛒. 🌊 It’s less than a 10-minute drive from the town to Walden Pond—and it feels like entering a whole other world. The lake glistens in the sun; lots of people were swimming in the water, while others relaxed on the shore, sunbathing or having picnics 🧺. We walked along the trail by the lake—autumn wind brushed our faces, and fallen leaves spread like a golden carpet. In another week or two, the fall foliage here is going to be even more stunning 🍁! #FallPreview #Boston #BostonLife #BostonSurroundings #WeekendGetaway #WaldenPond #ConcordMA #FallVibes #BostonLiving
