More from our day on Boston's Freedom Trail...
 |
| Outside the old state house, site of the 1770 Boston Massacre |
 |
| Old state house |
 |
| Moving right along, but still in the realm of heritage |
 |
Outside Faneuil Hall, the "Cradle of Liberty," with its statue of Sam Adams |
 |
| Would that more cities have these warnings |
 |
The sizeable Quincy Market, America's oldest market; alas, mostly touristy crap, over-priced food |
 |
| But interesting sculpture outside; part of Gillie and Marc's New England Zoo |
 |
| More about them |
 |
| A bit of the skyline |
 |
| Rotunda inside the Market; 1828 |
 |
| Makes Disney look like a real bargain |
 |
| Paul Revere House |
 |
Moving right along, in the North End now, but could have been--take away the ugly fire escapes--in Barcelona |
 |
| Helpful model; the Italian part of town |
 |
My artsy-fartsy masterpiece: the Midnight Rider with the Old North Church in the background |
 |
| Really divine North End pizza? |
 |
| Not a new sentiment around here |
 |
| No end to the cemeteries |
 |
So we got as far as the river, within sight of the USS Constitution and the Bunker Hill Monument...but decided we'd sort of already gotten the gist of the rest of it and it was time to head back to the hotel; an interesting walk, well worth the time |

Loved going on this walk many years ago. Thanks for revisiting it for me!
