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.

Yarn used: Gaelic Aran, or is it Celtic Aran, by KFI. long discontinued.
Needle size: US8 (5 mm) and 6 (4 mm) for the ribbing.
Why this sweater will be frogged: It makes me look like a line backer. I love how the bobbles look but they don't look good on me. Plus, this yarn is super warm, too warm for LA. I would not wear it.
What I learned making this sweater: I learned how to knit backwards to make all those bobbles a little more manageable. This is a skill that I believe will serve me well. I also learned I do not like to wear bulky textured knits because they make me look fat - but let me be more specific here - I am a very small boned girl. Bulky knits are out of proportion with my body type and look awkward on me. I love how they look in pictures, just not on me. I also learned (or reaffirmed) my dislike for the going-down-a-needle-size-for-ribbing philosophy. I never like how it turns out. Perhaps because I am a tight knitter? I don't know.
Why I love this yarn but hate the color: The other problem with this yarn is that I hate the color. It is boring Oatmeal. A color I cannot wear. The good thing about this yarn is although I have knit it into 3 different garments that have subsequently been frogged due to the ugly color/unsuitable sweater design the yarn still looks nice and new. It is now being made into a blanket.

Tuesday, I was watching the Noon News Hour on Global when Nicola Crosbie was presenting the weather and I couldn't help but pause the TV to capture this screenshot!
Look at Tuesday -- Mild and 72 degrees!! Mind you, we're not in the States... hahaha! It was suppose to read 2 degrees, but someone made a booboo and added the 7 in front.
