Boston Independence

Americana Art in our room

We began our day taking the T over to Fenway Park.  We arrived a bit early so we had a snack at a neighboring sports bar.  It gave us a more complete feel for the experience.  The tour was great, even for  Twins fans.  We got to sit in/on the green monster and sit in the press box.

After the tour, we joined a trolly tour, since we hadn't taken one yet.  We are trying to hit every variety of touring.  The trolly took us past many historical and interesting spots.  It was a bit difficult to get good pictures because we were in Boston traffic and had to keep moving.

We walked down by the river when we got back to Cambridge and checked out the fireworks crowd.  It was filling up and there were several food stands.  We got dinner at one and then went back to the hotel for a cool break.We finally walked back at about 10:00.  We found a nice curb and settled in for the wait.  Rain had beed forecasted all day, and it finally came just as the fireworks began.  No lightning though, so it just added to the sparkle!  There were speakers,  so we could hear the music.  We even got to hear Jennifer Hudson sing her Dreamgirls hit!

Oooo

Ahhhhh

Wow
