When it Rained, It Poured

Something we hadn't seen in a long time--rain. We had to wait a good 20 minutes before leaving the aquarium just for a break in the rain. We walked the streets of Boston and followed part of the Freedom Trail, a brick line designed to lead families and tourists around the main historical sites of the area. The rain would come and go. Even with the umbrella we invested in at the Aquarium, we still got pretty wet.

Here's our brief tour of the U.S.S. Constitution, aka Old Ironsides. Note the sailors; I believe they're real members of the modern U.S. Navy, drenched white pants and all.



Here was our dinner site on Saturday night.
Afterwards, we returned to the hotel, relaxed, and took a late night walk around the city, joined by one of the other WorldStrides guests, Michael, who had five kids, all of whom were named after cities which were in turn named after a famous person from World History. We learned a lot about Michael on our romantic little walk.
