So we followed the Freedom Trail from the Constitution to Fanueil Hall--which, I assure you, is no small adventure. It loops through the North End to the sights there and then heads out over a bridge to the main parts of town. The bridge was Betsy's favorite part :)
So here is the old north church (the "one if by land, two if by sea" church). It's the big white spire!
These are all pictures from inside the church. They still hold church there...that would be a fun place to go to church...uncomfortable, but fun!
This is behind the church. It's called Paul Revere Square. That is a statue of Paul Revere in the background of this picture.
Mykenzie and I just hanging out resting our feet. We also passed Paul Revere's house somewhere along the line--that is the RED line!
This is the north end of boston...it's primarily a VERY Italian area. There is a pastry shop there that is just AWESOME! Mike's Pastries is what it's called (they ship anywhere in the US!). We each ordered a canoli and the kids got some ice cream. I haven't been there in at least 8 years, but it was just as good as I remembered!
This sis another picture of the north end...right by the old north church, and overlooking the boston skyline. We walked from here to fanueil hall. We ate dinner there (fanueil hall is a shopping area in downtown boston. it has food as well as kiosks selling t-shirts, hats, and other memorabilia). The pizza was really good as was the shopping. Chris got himself a hoodie and a red sox hat. We got the kids each a pair of cheap sunglasses and a t-shirt. I got myself a really nice hoodie (in case you cared!!). We headed back out and got home some time after 7:00. It was a ton of walking, but we had so much fun.
