Historic Boston

We had to condense our visit to Boston since we have to be in Key Largo, FL for our Oct-Nov volunteer gig at John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park. But, we still wanted to see our friends Jim & Ann and some of historic Boston before moving on to short visits to NH & VT before turning SOUTH!

We enjoyed every day there but our time in downtown historic Boston doing the Freedom Trail was a great day, especially with Jim as our tour guide!
Faneuil Hall- one of the meeting halls in old Boston



Building was seat of British government












Grasshopper on top of Faneuil Hall!


We opted to taking a walking tour rather then the bus as we felt it would get us closer then riding around in a bus for most of the day!

North Church-one if by land, two if by sea!

The next day was our last before hitting the road for NH and we had a great breakfast at Jo's Nautical at the end of the Hull peninsula.  They make the best Bloody Marys in the world. Each is a veritable breakfast with fresh vegetable selection topped off with a shrimp!

It was a suitable end to a great visit with dear friends.

Always at home, no matter where we are!!
