Our one day in Boston was great. We managed to see so much we couldnt even believe it... :)
First we went to the top of Predential tower - which is the tallest building in Boston - and had a spectacular view of the center. We went up to the 52nd floor and could see Boston from all four sides of the building. Although there are some skyscrapers in the middle of the city, most of the buildings were rather small. And there are plenty of green areas in the city as well.
Right after that we did a lot of walking. We went to some shopping streets, saw the famous "Cheers" bar where series Cheers were shot, saw the bay where Bostons Tea Party took place and rested in one of the parks. Ofcourse we did a lot of shopping as I finally bought a pair of really nice high-heel shoes :) (was looking for a pair for a couple of years...)
The highlight of the day was the whale-watching. Apparently, whales are now moving from the Carribian see back to the Greenland area and they go through Boston. We took a boat and were riding for about an hour until we saw the first whales. We were lucky to see many of them, and one was just next to our boat so we got a good look at it. We saw two species which names I unfortunatelly forgot - but what I didnt forget is that one of them has partly white tale.. On the way back we saw the most beautiful sunset ever. The sky was just orange and moon was over the skyline of Boston..
Now I am back in the camp, back in reality for the next 4 weeks as I realised and its a big shock.. From a big beautiful city to a place where nobody lives.. See you soon Boston :)
