Day 44 – Boston, MA

Day 44 of #BoxsterRoadTrip is another day of sightseeing.

IMG_3146IMG_3148Today was in the 70’s and sunny.   Yeah!  This made walking around very nice indeed!

We started the day with a walk by Cheers!  A little too early for a drink at the bar, however.

Next we saw the tortoise and the hare (near the Boston Marathon Finish Line).  At this point, we are both feeling like the tortoise!  (And, believe it or not, we are both getting itchy to get back on the road!)

IMG_3153IMG_3157Next we took a self guided tour of the Trinity Church.  Both of us thought this church was very dark and dreary.  It would be difficult for me to feel uplifted in this church.  Although the architecture is certainly impressive.

In the church is a bust of Phillips Brooks, sculpted by Daniel Chester French (we toured Chesterwood on Day 37 of this trip).  Daniel Chester French is most noted for sculpting the Lincoln Memorial.  Phillips Brooks wrote the lyrics to “O Little Town of Bethlehem”.

Tomorrow is another day and . . .

The journey continues . . .
