Mark and Paula Persons headed to the wharf in Salem, MA. Salem has been a sea-going town since settlers arrived in the 1600s. Sailing is in their blood. |
 |
 |
|
Two men from Minnesota were there looking over the water when the Salem Ferry
arrived. They, along with Mark and Paula, hopped on for a trip to Boston. |
 |
 |
|
The captain knew what he was doing. The voyage took about 45 minutes at 33 knots. |
 |
|
Colorful villages along the way still had boats in the water early in October. |
 |
|
Hearty souls live along the rugged shoreline. |
 |
|
Boston finally appeared. Airplanes are often seen flying over the city
from Logan Airport. |
 |
 |
|
There were more interesting things and people to see in his historic
city, sometimes billed as "history's favorite city." |
 |
|
Boston has plenty of musicians looking to work for tips. |
 |
|
This fast food place had all the processed meat you could want. |
 |
|
Mark and Paula decided to find a genuine Italian restaurant in the
Italian section of town. |
 |
 |
|
They found this one and were not disappointed. Mama Mia! |
 |
|
This is a private residence along a business street. Very interesting. |
 |
|
The area near the bay is a popular spot for photographers and young couples. |
 |
 |
 |
|
This fountain in a square was intriguing to many. |
 |
| This clock tower is one of the better looking buildings on the skyline. |
Quote of the day:
Boston is a fun city. Mark
