"For Boston, for Boston, we sing our proud refrain..."

 So, now we get to the fun part Boston...playing in the city! I've been excited for my big sister to come to Boston for the first time, because she graduated from BYU as a History major and I knew she'd love the cool stuff out here. Melinda came to visit last week, and we partied like the Boston tea party...literally, actually, we went on a boat and dressed up like indians (i.e. putting feathers in our hair) and threw tea overboard. It was awesome. Then we let out a big hearty cry of "HUZZAH!" and we were on our way.

We went to almost all the cool historical sites.

the USS constitution; "old ironsides"

the site of the Boston Massacre

the Old North Church, "one if by land, two if by sea"

Paul Revere's house


We took a trolley tour and we also did a duck tour.

 the view from the duck tour was cool.

One of my favorite things we did, though, was go sailing on the Boston Harbor on a tall sail pirate ship.

It was a gorgeous sunset view of the city, and so much fun. Everything was peaceful and pretty out on the water.

We posted a ton of pictures and basically took over instagram the week she was here, but we just kept doing so many things it was hard not to! ha ha.

It was so fun having her here, and it was fun for us to get out and explore the city.
Until next time...
Huzzah!
