We walked from the T stop to the constitution. We walked past the Bunker Hill Memorial and all through Charlestown on our way there. The area there is so beautiful. Some of the old homes are just so pretty. We had a lot of fun walking through there and enjoying the architecture and homes. 
This is the BIG DIG!
In honor of our favorite Thompson...
Jayden and me
Betsy at the Constitution...we thought that since it was a Tuesday afternoon, we'd have no problem getting on a tour to see the whole constitution. We forgot to take into account the fact that it is the end of the school year, the teachers are dying to get the kids OUT and the Constitution is FREE!!! Mom and Dad took Jayden home while we took the Speed Line which only allows you to see the upper deck.
Jaxon and Mykenzie with the cannons in the back.
Playing around.

the boat
the kids playing on an anchor
they also had this world war II battle ship, the Cassin Young. The let you walk all over the main deck. I couldn't believe the small amounts of space. The kitchen was so small you could barely fit through without turning sideways. They had the ammunition room and the gun room that were smaller than a closet and they had 9 people working in there during a battle! Unbelievable!
Jaxon thought this antiaircraft gun was awesome. He was impressed that they could shoot bad buys airplanes out of the sky with it.
they thought the "bullets" were huge!
chris and me! We spent about an hour and a half, on these two ships. We really wanted to go to Faneuil Hall (something of a tradition for us when we go back there) as well that afternoon...that adventure to follow...
