Greeting From Boston...Day Four

Today was another cold day but a beautiful one...the sun was in full force though.
Today we hopped back on the trolley to take us to Harvard.
The plan was to walk around and then head back but the trolley ride took forever and a day so we decide to just stay on and take a look from the trolley and head back into Boston. The town was busy...lots of cute shops and the University looked like a bunch of different buildings ...some here and some there...kind of scattered...and not a big deal....really I think we wasted a lot of our day.
Anyway, we got back to the point to take the trolley back into Boston but we decided to cab instead so we could see some of the churches that we wanted to see.
Here is Trinity church...beautiful.

Above is the pulpit where the preacher gives his sermon from.
Then we went across the street to this church...Old South Church
Not as big as the first or as beautiful but still an older church and still beautiful.
Then we were in search of our souvenirs to take home...we headed to Faneuil Hall and The Quincy Market place ...there we found most of what we were looking for...it was really hard finding souvenirs in this city, they aren't just everywhere.
Faneuil Hall was also a meeting place back in the day of our founding fathers.
Then it was time to head back to the hotel and freshen up for dinner.
Tonight was "Legal Seafood"....Yummy!
