Sunday, September
30, 2018:
Mark and Paula Persons headed to the Public Garden at Boston Commons. Bronze statues of a mother duck and her ducklings were on parade. |
 |
 |
|
Paula is big with small animals. The man on the right was relaxing with
his pipe. |
 |
 |
 |
|
There is a memorial to firemen who lost their lives in the line of duty. |
 |
|
Mark and Paula went to the top of the 52 floor/749 foot
Prudential Tower to see Boston from above. The sights on that day were very good. |
 |
 |
|
Sail boats were out racing on the Charles River. |
 |
|
Fenway Park, where the Red Sox play baseball,
was visible from there too. |
 |
 |
|
Then Paula decided to find the Boston Public Library. Hmmm...where is it?
She studied a map and decided public transportation was a good way to get there. |
 |
|
The library is a huge place used by a lot of people. |
 |
|
The murals are beautifully done. |
 |
|
Then it was time to see the old part of town. |
 |
|
The Bell in Hand Tavern,
America's oldest tavern, goes back to 1795. |
 |
 |
|
Street musicians playing for tips that night. |
 |
|
There were even horse carriages for those who wanted to ride instead of walk. |
 |
| Looking out over Boston's harbor after sunset. |
Quote of the day:
There is a lot to see in Boston. Mark
