Salem Witch Trial overkill

---

Day 186 (Thursday 22/10/09, NJJ)
From hotel went on to Minute Man National Historical Park. Had a wander on the battlefield and saw the statue. Stopped at the tavern at the National Park. Then on to Saugus Ironworks for a short wander before going in to Salem. Saw the infamous witch house. The burying point - where a Mayflower Pilgrim and one of the Witch Trial Judges, amongst others, are buried. The Witch Trial Monument was interesting. There were some beautiful fall colours to see however Salem was very much 1692 Witch Trial overkill with a lot of tac around too. We gave up on the JFK NHS after 2 hours driving around with not even a glimpse of it. Drove on to Attleboro and checkd into a Days Inn. Food at Olive Garden - overrated. There were quite a few rough people staying at the Days Inn which made us a bit apprehensive about being there.
