YAY!! We made it to Boston! We dealt with some rainy and windy (I mean pouring down, turn your umbrella inside out) weather for a couple of days so our hotel was our best friend. However, once the sun came out we were well rested and ready to go. The views from the top of the Old Custom House were amazing! An historical boat tour provided a great overview of the city and some great photo opportunities. We returned to the Museum of Fine Art for our second visit and our feet still begged us to retreat before we saw everything. Maybe a third visit there will be the charm.
Seems like you should start where it all began so to speak. The site of the Boston Tea Party Museum:
Yes!! We made it to the top of the Old Customs House. You can only go up at 2:00 on select days of the week so we planned ahead. The view was soooo worth it!
Right of center, near the top, is the white steeple of the Old North Church.
Check out the Bernie "look-alike" in the background. Yes, I engaged him later and snapped a photo. Ironically, he hates Bernie. How's that for God's sense of humor?
We love being on the water. Check out the abandoned lighthouse peeking out at us.
The Museum of Fine Art in Boston is among the best. I have to visit the art museum of any major city where we visit. Cleopatra greets you in Boston (sigh). Other favorites include the unfinished portrait of George Washington that's the actual image used on the $1 bill, and the Monet gallery. Monet's wife is featued in the last picture.
