Boston

We stopped in Boston for a few days to visit Matt's Aunt Jenny and Uncle Bruce, and cousin Luke. We drove through downtown and saw Fenway, and stopped at the Sunset, a bar that has over 100 beers on tap and over 400 bottles. We went with Uncle Bruce to the Sam Adams brewery, where we tried beers only sold in Boston. We visited Minuteman Militia Historic Park, and learned that Paul Revere was actually captured by the British during his "ride" and there were actually three others involved who warned the town. The next day we walked down the Freedom Trail from Faneuil Hall to Paul Revere's house. Along the way we stopped at Cheers, the oldest restaurant in America (Union Oyster House) and the oldest bar in America (Bell in Hand Tavern), where we tried the Sam Adams beer brewed exclusively for the tavern. We of course had to have our favorite, Dunkin Donuts, because it started in Boston and can be found on every street corner. Thank you so much to Jenny, Bruce and Luke for welcoming us and showing us a great time in Boston!
