Boston & The Freedom Trail

On Thursday we all woke up and drove from Maine to Boston (which is about an hour and a half). We started the day all together, at the Constitution Center, which is where the USS Cassin and the USS Constitution are docked. We all went through the little museum that they have about the ships and then took tours of the ships. After the tour of the Ships and the museum, David, myself and his dad left and went on the Freedom Trail which is a trail that takes you all around the city of Boston and hits all of the historical sites.

It ran throughout the city.This is Bunker Hill and the Bunker Hill Monument. There are stairs that you can climb and get all the way to the top to look out the window.We decided to climb them. They were straight up and tough to climb.Once we made it to the top this was the view from the window.This is how we looked when we were finished.Us outside the monument.I thought this street sign was REALLY neat.David and I sitting on the steps in Faneuil HallPaul Revere's house
