Boston Duck Boat Tour


I could go on and on about how great the Boston Duck Tour is, but I'll summarize: If you have never been on the Duck Tour, and are not from the area, do yourself a favor - go on the Duck Tour. You will learn many things from as well as be entertained by conDUCKtors. They give you a little bit of history, do some sight seeing on land in lots of the Boston neighborhoods, and take a relaxing ride up the Charles river. Well worth the time and money. I added the link to the Boston Duck Boat tour below the pictures.

USS Constitution


This is amazing! The USS Constitution, a wood sailing frigate, is the oldest commissioned floating naval ship in the world. It was launched in 1797 and named by our first United States President, George Washington. This ship has sailed all over the world

Bunker Hill Monument


The Bunker Hill Monument (actually on Breed's hill) in Charlestown, MA, was erected between 1827 and 1843 to commemorate the battle of Bunker Hill in the Revolutionary was in 1775.
The monument is a granite obelisk with a 294 step interior spiral staircase, and no elevator, but an excellent cardiovascular workout, and a tremendous view once you complete the ascent .
