Boston!


On the ship at the Boston Tea Party Museum.


My samples of tea!



There were 4 kinds of tea to sample. One was a smoky flavor, which was terrible, but the others were all good!


Dump the tea!


This coffee was sooooo good.


And all the pizza was good too!


The Boston Public Library.



These little lions are in the children's area of the library.


This is a huge study room in the old section of the library.



These big lions are in the entryway to the upstairs of the library. The old part of this library is awesome.


This is the Harvard Library. Since we don't have student IDs we couldn't go inside, sadly.


This is the statue of Mr. Harvard, only he's not really Mr. Harvard. We did a guided tour of campus that was really interesting!


That's the freshman dorms or dining hall or something.


These desserts were amazing.


Bunker Hill Monument. 


This little brick path went the whole length of the freedom trail. It's 2.5 miles and takes you through a lot of the historical spots.


Paul Revere's statue and my book about him. I learned a lot about him since I don't know much about that time period.


Somewhere along the freedom trail!




Boston Harbor outside of the USS Constitution ship & museum.



We ate lots of desserts! 


The aquarium had a few big sea turtles.


This is one of the markets--there are 3-4 large indoor/outdoor markets with food vendors, mostly.


The green monster at Fenway.


Fenway Park was maybe my favorite thing. This is the view from our seats...the cheap seats!



These are the hops they use to make the beer.


We did a tour of Sam Adams. 


These flowers in Boston Common park are super cool!


Outside of Cheers...before I lost my sunglasses there, obviously!


This photo of the cast covers an entire wall outside of the gift shop.


My drink from Cheers!


By the flowers!


And this is my eye the day before we went to Boston after being attacked by a bug.
