Let's see where I left off...oh yes Freedom Trail!
Jeremy headed out to walk the Freedom Trail Tuesday morning. I decided to wait and join him closer to the end of the trail since it was so HOT! Here are a few pictures from his historic walk.
Benjamin Franklin
The North Church where the "one if by land, two if by sea" lantern was hung
I met up with Jeremy before going here, Bunker Hill. Jeremy loved learning about this battle!
and the final stop, the USS Constitution
That afternoon after a quick stop at Harvard, we decided to head back to hotel and have some drinks by the pool. It was so hot and humid and we couldn't wait to jump in the pool!
The next day we headed to Plymouth. I had been to Plymouth as a child, but all I remember doing there was seeing the rock.
Here we are on the Mayflower II
And here is Plymouth Rock
And here is the Plymoth Plantation
After that we went to Quincy to the Adams National Historic Park. They have the homes where John Adams and John Quincy Adams were born and a home where 4 generations of the Adams family lived. Here is one of them.
We had a great time in Boston and enjoyed being together without having to worry about work! It was a good break! Stay tuned for the next post about King's Dominion amusement park and a trip to the ER!
