Boston Harbor Cruise Tour

 Harbor Cruise


Today was the last day to stay at the hotel in Boston.  We got up early to pack and loaded our suitcases to the bus.  We went on the Boston Harbor cruise and learned about the history of Boston Harbor area.  It was a hot sunny day so we really enjoyed the nice breeze to keep ourselves cool.  We saw some of the wharf that was renovated  and some were deteriorate.  It is expensive to keep up the wharf due to the new laws in Boston.   We were able to see a different perspective of Boston on water compared to what we saw yesterday on land.  Seeing  Mark Wahlberg's 2.4 million dollar condo was pretty neat to see. Also, we saw a building on Castle Island where the famous author  Edgar Allan Poe used to play cards, a hospital that was used to separate people who had small pox and tested medicines, prison, and recently marines lived there.


We ate lunch at the Quincy Market again.  Students were independent to order their lunch and wanted to try something new.  After lunch, we shopped around the famous Market for a while.  By 2:30pm, suddenly everyone was sad since it was time to leave Boston and they wished to stay longer.  We got on the bus and headed back to ASD.  We walked to town and ate dinner at Subway then to Ben and Jerry's for ice cream.  After eating ice cream at the community park, we played freeze tag and man, they became worn out!!
