Arriving in Boston we aim straight for the aquarium to see the seals before having a nice stroll along the harbour. We make our way to the old town and browse the markets as well as taking in the sights of all the pretty buildings.
It's time for an early dinner in the 21st Amendment bar where James' burger is so big it nearly eats him. After fuelling up we find the gardens which are beautiful and we have a walk around the lake where we spot some bandit squirrels stealing food from prams, naughty squirrels!
We decide to take a trip on the historic swan boats which is really peaceful and relaxing.
After strolling through the streets of Boston we decide to stop for a drink and where better to stop than where everybody knows your name? that's right, we're in the famous Cheers bar although it's not as friendly as the song makes out and not as cheap as the show makes out, but worth a stop.
The actual set is out of bounds |
We'd like to visit the library where the globe thingy is so we stroll through some lovely green areas before arriving at the library which is shut because it's a Monday, great! Plan B is a walk along the waterfront which is really nice. We see some people having a free sailing lesson but the sight of them nearly capsizing puts an end to any thoughts of us heading out on the water.
There's been a lot of walking today so we're very grateful that Uncle Chris has offered to pick us up, he's a good egg.
