shipping up to boston (day three)

according to plan, we were to explore boston's freedom trail. it's a route for tourists to follow and look at some historic memorials and other meaningful stuff.

shao just had to show off his shiny new toy gun. nope, NO innuendo at all.

the old governor's house. just a funny thought: put this house in cali and get arnold to stay in it. and make a super-smash-box-office-smash-movie. XD

the USS Constitution. apparently extremely well-kept and in excellent condition. it had fought in a few wars. the museum next to it was really interesting too.

a memorial remembering the atrocities of the holocaust and the death camps. there were grilles on the ground that emitted a fine mist, and the structures made of glass panes were beautiful. each pane had a short experience or quote inscribed on it.


the quincy market had a lot of stuff on sale. from cute little (and practically bai-swee) items, to a wide variety of food (think beard papa from japan), to the standard GAP and banana republic stores. diversity.

and the old state house. the basement has been transformed into a subway station. the rest of it is a museum, and they charge an entrance fee. no thank you.

we ended the day (and the trip in boston) with a delicious meal at legal seafoods, a famous chain of restaurants in boston. the lobster was succulent. i want it again.

boston was pleasant, but slightly bland. now on to the happening big apple.

how we were shipped!
