This is the Boston portion of our vacation. We spent three busy days here. The first two days were mostly following the Freedom Trail (the historical points in Boston). We definitely got off path when we felt like seeing other things or spending more time exploring "off the trail" sights. There are a lot of pictures so I will try to just label them, not elaborating much on what we did.
These first two pics are of the Harvard Book store, which we visited the first night. There were more Harvard students there than there should have been at 9pm. I guess that's what they do for fun around there :)

We spent a little while touring local art galleries. This was my favie: they painted a sailboat scene on a nautical map.
We had a beer at Remy's before the game. We sat rooftop and had an awesome view of the outside of Fenway Park
