Boston

Last Friday my Mom, Raquel, Joe and I spent our day in Boston touring all the fantastic historical sites. We made our way through the subway system, walked part of the freedom trail, ate at local food places, and took a duck tour. It was a lot of fun and so neat to be back there after 10 years. It was my mom and I's second time back however Joe's first time so it was extremely exciting to show him all around the cities amazing sites. For those of you that have never been to Boston it is so rich with historical history and a must see place. The day was extremely hot and humid with 90% humidity and 95 degrees so you could only imagine how tired were where when our enlightening day was over.
***This is us on the sub way trying to find our way to get to downtown Boston!
***The freedom trail is this really cool thing that has a painted or brick red path all around downtown Boston that follows the exact trail that Paul revere rode his horse to warn the British were coming. At each historical site you find one of these plate monuments, this one was taken exactly where the Boston massacre happened on March 5, 1770.
***This is Joe and I in front of the Massachusetts State House. This was our first stop on our freedom trail path. One cool thing about this is that the gold dome at the top is 100% real gold plated!
***This is The park street church where Paul revere attended and were many first public christian leaders came to speak.
***This is Joe and I on the duck tour which is a tour that took us everywhere land and water in Boston.

***I got chosen to drive the duck tour and so this is a picture of me driving the old war vehicle. The tour director said I would have a bright future if I went into the duck tour business because I was such a great duck driver.

***These 6 pillars are in remembrance of the Holocaust and have all the engraved names of every person that was killed during the tragic time- This was super cool!

***This grave yard is the resting place for some of our most famous fore fathers such as, John Hancock, John Adams, Paul Revere and many more. ***The yellow flag says CHEERS on it which is the actual cheers bar and grill that the popular TV show was filmed.
