Boston - Invitation to a tea party - Boston



Went to Boston by train for the first time.

I remember the Commons, going to Logan airport and seeing tourists throwing a bale of tea from a sailing ship in the harbor to reenact the famous revolt against King George's imposed tea tax on the American colonies.

Boston - Invitation to a tea party - Boston



The heritage trail and the famous halls and markets are reminders of the early American nation. Boston is not as exciting as New York or LA but a worthwhile American city to visit.

Boston is home of famous universities like Harvard, MIT, Boston and Northeastern.

    Nice page! Not to worry: the old "Combat Zone" Red-Light district is all but gone; Chinatown owns it all now. BTW, if you were at Smith, you can just as well say you were at Amherst. Cheers, Mark

    Hi Liew, how's the postcards coming along. I thought China Town was part of the combat zone, I lived there for 4 years and was always told that.
