One if by Land

Sight-seeing in Boston is  infinitely simple.  Not only does that big red line they've painted on the ground and called The Freedom Trail make everything easy to locate, but it is all so close together.  One of the benefits of being one of our founding cities...the majority of it was built before cars - you can walk to almost everything.


Some of what I saw:





Paul Revere with the Old North Church in the Background.  Turns out Paul Revere had 16 kids.  Who knew?



The Old North Church.



North Square.




I'm not sure that North Square is used for anything these days.   What with the cobble stones and the smallness.  I did, however, see 2 young men taking a smoke break from their restaurant job.  So perhaps it does still have a use.  Besides the super cool chains and cobble stones.  I know it's historical and all, but I would probably have stayed a bit longer there if there were some benches there.  Just a suggestion.
