Boston

Back in Boston.

Back in the same hotel.

Rooms are a little tired, but history up the wazoo, and the location is excellent.

Just around the corner is a place called Faneuil Hall. I don't know how the locals pronounce it, but I call it Finial Hall. It is the central point of Quincy Market.

Last time we were here, it took us ages to find it. The map on my phone had it located somewhere else, so getting Sarah to trust my directions were a challenge. We were looking for it, because that's where we were to pick up a hop-on-hop-off trolley we had purchased.

Anyway, once we found it, we discovered that it is a cornucopia of goodies. Food stalls, restaurants, souvenir stalls, shoe shops. Everything you could possibly want. If you are a woman who likes shopping, lunch and shoes.


One restaurant here is a cheers bar. Not the 'original' one. That is down the road from our hotel, on Beacon Hill. It's actually called the Bull and Finch Pub, but is the one they copied for the tv show. Can't miss that one either. Branding everywhere, and the obligatory souvenir shop.

Anyway, there is a Cheers bar at Quincy Market. We did dinner here again this trip. Add that to the list.

Also, just beyond Quincy Market is the wharf. Aquarium, boat tours, whale watching, more souvenir stalls. Just a great place to hang around.
