Day 9: A full day of Boston

[517] Today we started with walking the Freedom Trail.  It was such a beautiful day to be out.  There were also many groups of kids on thier end-of-year field trips.[548] [553]  The girls actually took the time to walk through most sites and read plaques (or mom/dad would read from the guide).[514]

[545]We found an open market and stopped for a fresh fruit break.  [538] There was also this very large maccaroni...

[565]We stopped at the USS Constitution and USS Young.  [569] The ship tours were not running but both were open for self-guided tours.  We spent time on both though and learned a bit history as well.

Fom there we were to the Science Center. [582] It had many hands-on exhibits, sort of like the St Louis Science Center. It also had movies, I Max, and shows. [585] We watched an interesting one on lightning.  Amanda volunteered and had fun getting her hair scattered all over the place. [588] Both kids, actually all four of us, had a good time reading all the information and play with all the exhibits.

The night ended with Pizza from Upper Crust.  It was a cool walk home as storms are now moving into the area.

Here's to clear weather on our way home tomorrow.  Our internet at the hotel is horrible.  I will add photos when I can.
