The cobbled streets left over in some areas of Boston are great! But I wouldn't want to drive on them...or anywhere in town, for that matter. There's a very good public transportation system, and the locals all think you're crazy if you try to drive downtown.

This is another shot of the Revere home, this time taken in 2003. Hasn't changed much, but after all, it's been around over 200 years! :)

This is the site of one of the turning point battles fought in the Revolutionary War, and the momument is a tall obelisk with a great position for viewing the city of Boston. There's also an informative display downstairs describing the battle and its results. All free admission!
