Day 2...The Freedom Trail

We started off day two with a lot of walking.  We explored the history of Boston in a 5 walk on the Freedom Trail.  It was absolutely amazing the amount of history in Boston and although we were tired after walking all that way, I am so glad that we took the time to do it.  We also treated ourselves to a yummy dessert from Mike's Pastry Shop, a popular bakery in Boston.

The history is amazing to see, we are so glad this was something y'all took the time to do and we hope you always get to do this stuff over the years, never never stop traveling if your capable, there is so much out there in just the fifty states, much less the whole world. WE LOVE IT!!!!

Homemade Bread

Because of all the recent events in our country right now, going to buy staples, like bread, in the grocery store has become very difficult....
