Day 1: Boston

Well, we survived our first day in Boston! I say survived not because of anything bad, but because if today is any indication of the amount of walking we will be doing (and I think it was), we will all be losing some weight this week.

Boston is an amazing city~ It is one of those places where you can feel the history that took place more than 200 years ago. And, to add to that feeling, there are people dressed in period costumes that act as guides near historic sites.

We got to see a lot of Boston today~ The Freedom Tour literally brings our country's history to life.

After lunch, we watch this street performer for about thirty minutes.  He was very entertaining, and pretty funny!

The Granbury Burial Ground has the remains of many of our forefathers- Samuel Adams, Paul Revere,

It was interesting how close together the rows of headstones were- many of the rows were 3-4 feet apart.
