A Day in Boston
    It is a crazy trip. Friday evening witnessed us in a haste planning a one-day trip to Boston. I searched for some materials about this city and got some ideas of this trip. Hoping for a nice trip, I went to bed at 12 pm. We 7 people got up at 3:40 in the morning and began this hope-to-be-nice trip. At 4:40, the train started. The first embarrassment was that we couldn’t buy tickets through net, while with the kind conductor, finally we succeeded. So here in America, we met so many nice people.

As One of the oldest cities in the United States, Boston is so famous for Harvard Universtiy, MIT and freedom trail, and lobster as well. First of all,we experienced the old culture by taking subway to nearly every corner of Boston. The red bricks of Harvard Unversity and somewhat modern buildings in MIT mean a lot for Boston to be a center for education and culture.  IMG_1492.JPGIMG_1503.JPG

    At noon, we enjoyed a big meal--Boston lobster, rather delicious!

   As far as I know, Boston has earned a reputation as “the intellectual capital of the United States”. That afternoon, when we wandered around the ancient old buildings along the freedom trail, I truly believed that history can make a city so charming.

  1. I'm exhausted simply from reading of your journey,,,so very glad you made it and enjoyed yourselves. I trust you all slept on the train?!? Isn't it interesting how very different Yale and Harvard are? I tend to prefer the architecture of Yale over Harvard, ,,,and you?
