The coolest city in the world!!!!

Returned from vacation on Saturday the 8th of September. Still on a high!

Boston has got to be the coolest city in the world. And of all the cities i've been to... it was the most memorable... that includes Hong Kong, London, Dublin, New York, Chicago, Seattle on and on...

maybe it's cuz i'm a history nerd. there's somethin' about history that can physically take your breath away. if you stand in the right spot.



To explain... let me compare the New York leg of the trip and the New England leg of the trip.

And don't get me wrong. New York has unbelievable Rev War history, but the places to visit in New England can transport you back 300 years where as NY has too many tourist distractions to focus on their emmense history.


Here's where my buddies and I hit:

New York
Statue of Liberty
Staten Island Ferry
Time Square
Rockefeller Center
Yankee game vs. Mariners!
Central Park
Wall Street
9/11 site

Boston/New England
Fenway Park (Red Sox game- Unreal!!!)
The freedom Trail- stood where the Boston Massacre happened
stood in Paul Revere's house
stood at the grave sites of Paul Revere, Samuel Adams, Jon Adams, the martyrs in the Boston Massacre.
Stood on the ground of the battle of Lexington
Stood on the path that led to the Battle of Concord
Stood on the bridge where the British and Colonists fought in Concord.
Plymouth Mass... stood where the Mayflower landed.
Bunker Hill in Boston... first actual skirmish of the Rev War.


all these things will take your breath away if you can take away the modern buildings and just look at the surroundings and let your mind go back 200 years. literally you'll stop breathing for a second.

Boston was just so cool. Hangin' in Haverhill, Mass. Drivin' through Conneticut and Rhode Island. Havin' ice cream in Plymouth across from the Plymouth Rock. Also sitting in an irish pub on Bunker Hill talkin' sox baseball with the locals!

This trip was the coolest i've ever taken and would go back in a heart beat!!

I guess the combo of baseball and history are a powerful combo!
