Not sure what time of year you are going but the closer to autumn, the more glorious the foliage will be. We loved Boston - took a trolley trip the first day to get our bearings and then spent the second day walking the Freedom Trail - there are markers along the pavement forming a path - and visiting the historic sites along the trail. If you've ever watched the TV show Cheers, there are two locations - http://www.cheersboston.com/main_locations.html. If you get a chance to go a bit south of Boston, Plymouth is 40 miles south - the Mayflower II (replica) is in Plymouth Harbor and then it's a short drive to Plimoth Plantation which is the living museum that has the Native American village, the English village, and the crafts center where many of the items used in both villages are made. It's a great day out.Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12488927758678871106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120527001686989538.post-12036724399163998952014-06-26T14:40:27.177+01:002014-06-26T14:40:27.177+01:00Lovely pictures of Spain, though we've visited...Lovely pictures of Spain, though we've visited other parts of Spain recently it's been year since we went to the Costa Brava, use to stay in Tossa del Mar.

We have five days in between to drive in a bit of circular fashion from Kennebunk to Boston, so we'll probably take in a bit of Vermont and central/west Massachusetts.Justinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17888014986650598361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120527001686989538.post-48434861340271336472014-06-26T13:44:06.765+01:002014-06-26T13:44:06.765+01:00Beautiful pictures!
