Boston, Massachusetts: August 24 & 25, 2009

We drove to Boston to visit my parents' friend Louise & Pell (and their kids Annie and Will).  We went to the big ship Constitution but it rained so hard we didn't see it.  My rain dance didn't work (or maybe it did).  My dad and I climbed the Bunker Hill Monument (294 steps + 3 metal steps) but my Mom didn't go because she's afraid of heights.  That night we ate on their porch on top of the house.  Afterwards we walked to the North End and got tasty Italian desserts.  They have toilets on the streets of Boston that are sort of robots.  It was near a small plaque about a flood that happened when a molasses tank burst.

The next day we went to the New England Aquarium and took the Water Taxi back to Charlestown.

  1. The potato gun sounds funny and it would be funny if you shot it on your neighbors noggins while they were in the pool. Looking at niagra falls sounds awesome. Your friend, Luke
