• Freedom Trail and Red Sox

    July 24 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 81 °F

    We had no problem getting up early. Breakfast in before a short train ride to central Boston. We walked through Quincy Market (next to Faneuil Hall) but it was too early for food before our 10am walking tour. We met up with Nicole - a close friend from San Antonio that just moved to Boston. Together we had a 2+ hour walking tour on the Freedom Trail ending at Boston Commons and then Back Bay. It was a good tour with a lot of history about Boston. We tried a fish place for lunch but it was right next door to a Raisin’ Canes so Mom acquiesced and we enjoy the chicken fingers. Unfortunately, Grandma Connie didn’t tolerate the heat well and got dehydrated enough to make a pit stop at urgent care. After a couple hours, everything checked out okay and we made it back home for a couple hours to relax. After cooling down, we headed back out for the train to Fenway Park. We had right field bleacher seats and beautiful weather for the night game. Balloons for the kids before taking our seats. Got on tv in the first inning when a home run was hit right in front of us. We got to keep score and enjoyed a good game but had to check out after the 7th inning stretch as we were all tired. Train home and we all went right to bed at our last night in Boston.Read more
