Boston.
The forecast for the day was poor, and getting worse with the possibility of lightning later, so we had better get out of the hotel and about before the bad weather hit.
We do not eat in the hotel, as the cost is not included, and the place is a 5*, so would be expensive. Instead we walk back towards Boston Common, then turn, er, right, and come to a Mexican place that looked OK. We go in and have burritos and smoothies, which was very good indeed.
And then onto the trail.
Boston has created a red line, or in some places, two lines of bricks, taking the walking tourist on a tour of the revolutionary sites, one after the other and never getting lost. The only downside is that sometimes there are many people walking it too, but hey, you won’t get lost.
We pick up the trail at the edge of the financial district, and head down towards the harbour before it crosses over where the interstate now runs underground and into Little Italy. Apparently, this is the oldest Italian community in the US, and easy to believe, and had a very much more Italian feel than Little Italy in New York.
The narrow streets helped, and many of them being cobbled, and with Italianate churches thrown into the mix.
We stop for a coffee, pumkin spiced latte, but was the best coffee we have had since arriving.
From there, the trail goes past Paul Revere’s house, and farther up the street, the church he lit a warning of the approaching British army. Finally, there is a burial ground with stones dating back to the start of the 18th century, oddly not many people stopped to look in, but we did. I had been here before.
From the burial ground, down a slope, across a major road then over the river by way of a metal bridge with the roadway and footway made by a metal mesh you could see through to the water below.
On the other side we turn towards the old Naval shipyard, down through a new housing development, and into the old shipyard, and made of cobbled streets and open spaces, it houses a couple of ships, one the USS Constitution, which you can look up on Google. I had also been on that before, so did not pay to go on again, I just walk round the yard snapping details.
