(1.) THE FREEDOM TRAIL -- just follow the red line on the sidewalk, and it will lead you to just about all of the major historical sites in Boston! A good place to start is Park St. T-stop (we call our subway 'the T'), which is right in downtown Boston. (2.) THE U.S.S. CONSTITUTION, America's oldest commissioned warship, is docked at Charlestown Navy Yard. I'm not overly fond of things military, but this ship really is worth seeing! It was affectionately named 'Old Ironsides', because enemy cannonballs used to bounce right off the sides. (3.) THE NORTH END, where you will probably hear more Italian spoken than English, especially on market day. Italian restaurants, cafes and bakeries galore... This area is definitely not to be missed on 'feast days'.

MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS Major exhibits include: paintings by French, Dutch and Italian masters (lots of Impressionist works, in particular!), 19th-century American paintings, Egyptian mummies and other funerary items, African statues and masks, and an extensive Asian collection (Chinese, Japanese, Indian...) Look for more photos in Travelogue #1... In the meantime, here is one of my favorite pieces -- GUAN YIN, goddess of compassion.

Address: Take the Green Line to the 'Museum' T-stop.
