Our departure from Rutland, Vermont, headed to Boston for Martin Luther King weekend was a bit delayed because of treacherous road conditions. Once we got on the road, Beth, and her new car, handled the condition very well. It was my first "On Star" experience and I highly recommend it (although I still used the map feature on my phone). We got into our rooms at the Faneuil Hall Hilton, 89 Broad St, earlier than the posted check in time, freshened up and headed out for the Old Town Trolley (I bought us three-day tickets on-line in advance for 30% of the rack rate). We got our money's worth with "BEAR" our Boston driver/narrator. He took us from the Quincy Market stop along the harbor through the North End (Little Italy) to the stop for the ... read more

We arrived in Boston after a fairly successful overnight journey from Washington – the coach was empty and we managed to commandeer a whole row each, making lying down possible and almost comfortable! With a day to spare until the much anticipated arrival of Ebba and Anna, we decided to head out to New Haven, Connecticut, to see Yale University. It was well worth a trip and we spent a lovely warm, sunny afternoon pottering around the university grounds, through the Old Campus ‘intellectual spotting’ – there were many bespectacled hipsters sitting around under trees pretending to be intelligent.

I drove from Virginia to Massachusetts which was very nice. I really liked seeing parts of Brooklyn,New York; New Jersey; Connecticut; Delaware, Rhode Island, etc. I've been to many states in New England and Mid-Atlantic. But focusing on the topic of Boston, Massachuetts. I would like to explain a couple of interesting things that I would think you should check out.

BOSTON - Destination of hidden meanings I haven't blogged much these past year and a half, since most of my trips have not been exciting at all. I came and went to cancer centers to get treatment, most of the time. Who would like to read about that on a travelblog, right? BOSTON was different though. The Universe had other plans for me up its "sleeves". Memorable new connections and re-connection with special people happened because I came to Boston, and I also got to enjoy some very good times there.. The city is gorgeous, easy to navigate on public transportation, Lyft or Uber; the air is crisp and fresh during the time I visited. Food is great, from vegan to … everything. There is also so much history and so many nice sites to visit. ... read more
