Today was a very cold day.
You would never know it by the sun that shines but trust me...it was a very cold day.
We headed out...destination Chinatown.
Not so great...mainly restaurants...nothing like the Chinatown of New York or San Francisco, which by the way was my favorite and which I base all Chinatown's on. While walking in the cold and the winds which I swear were as close to hurricane strength without there being a hurricane...there were times we had to brace ourselves to keep from being thrown down by the wind.
So we figured that this day was a good day to hop aboard a trolley and see the town from a different view.
Here we passed by this building where on the third floor was John F Kennedy's voting address when he was elected President. The Charles River frozen with ice.
Fenway Park...the outside needs a make over...very old building
The monument of Bunker Hill but this was not the site of Bunker Hill
The USS Constitution....the oldest commissioned warship.
A view of Boston from the USS Constitution
The oldest Post Office
We ate at America's oldest restaurant...we had lobster and it was divine.Behind us and to the side was a booth labeled "The Kennedy Booth" ...JFK was a regular before becoming president...he ate there so much that they gave him his own booth upstairs. Was very cool to be in such an old place where our founding fathers had ate and a President of our own time.
