Christmas Vacation (part 1)

I headed out to the east coast on Dec 22nd, with my first stop being Nashua, New Hampshire.
On the 23rd Dad & Marty took me to Boston, but not before making a stop at the Riverview Restaurant. It was a good little restaurant, it probably had the best breakfast sausage I've ever tasted.

On the way to Boston, we went along the trail that Paul Revere rode. This is the monument where William Dawes, Paul Revere, and Samuel Prescott were captured by the British. But Prescott got away and finished the ride.

A little taste of the east coast, Moxie. It tastes like a mix of Dr. Pepper & Rootbeer.
Heading into Boston, the Temple is right off the freeway. Looks very nice, doesn't it?
We went along the Freedom Trail, with the first stop being Faneuil Hall. Here is a statue of Samuel Adams in front.

This is the Massachusetts State House.
It was fun learning about all the history. This is artwork about the Boston Massacre.
The whole day was really cold. We went on one of those tour buses that went around the city, and the driver talked about all the sites. That night we ate at Cheers... you know... "Where everyone knows your name"?
I thought this looked nice. In Boston, we walked through a park that had an outdoor ice skating rink.
The next day, I had to leave that afternoon, but before that Dad & Marty took me for a drive along the country side. It was very nice to see different things. A covered walk bridge, and a frozen lake. I was a little skeptical.
