Boston Harbor Fest

Carlos and I spent Thursday in Boston attending some of the Boston Harbor Fest events. It was a lot of fun (and walking). Here are some pictures from that day.


Carlos walking the Freedom Trail towards the State House.


Inside the State House.


The hanging thingamabob represents Massachusetts. All the flags represent each town of the state.

We took a Boston Rickshaw up the hill from the New England Aquarium to King's Chapel. This really worked hard to get us there.

On the Crypt tour of the King's Chapel, Carlos gets a peek into one of the crypts.


And you can see a lot. Including the actual coffins. Including this one of an unidentified baby. ::shivers::
