Where Everybody Knows Your Name!
Yes, Yes i finally made it to Boston. Folks at home, you know how much i've always wanted to visit Boston and New York. Well i made it! It really is such a beautiful city i'd recommend anyone to go there!
So our day kicked off rather early. At 8am Gill picked us up from Keene state and drove us all the way down to Boston. He drove us past Harvard University, which i was particularily
excitied... because well it's Harvard! It is a stunning place!
At 10.30 ish we arrived in Boston. Gill dropped us off at the Museum of Science where we boarded a Duck Boat. Yup a Duck Boat. These things drive not only through the city but through the River Charles as well! We had a wicked cool time on that thing. We had a crazy driver called Penny who was a lot of fun. She even let Helen drive the Duck Boat (a priveledge only for those under the age of 10!).

When we got off the Boat, we walked our way into central Boston. Helen gave the directions. We didn't get lost, not even a little! Wanna know why? Because Helen stepped into the map?! It really works! So we walked our way around Boston, passing some of the attractions we past on the boat. We did make sure we had our picture taken at the 'Cheers' bar because that is where everyone knows your name! Unfortunately Ted Danson was not working there that day! Maybe next time ay?
There is not much more i can elaborate on. We walked around the park and around Boston central and had a wonderful. Sorry mother if you want more details but there are no other words! It was amazing, it was beautiful. Someday i will return!

The greatest blog i ever did see. Thanks also for your card sent via snail mail. It has arrived safely.
Boston looks even better than it did when I visited in 1983! or was it when they threw the tea in the harbour?
However I guess Boston wasnt as crowded as Thorpeness. At the moment we are be invaded by hundreds of twitchers who have come to see the celebraty holiday maker, a red flanked blue tail (bird). It usually lives in Russia but alas took a wrong turn and finished up on Thorpeness common. What excitment! But perhaps it does not match a visit to Boston. Any chance of ornithology photos from US of A?
