Scenes from a Boston tourist trolley
On Sunday, Thommy and I took his parents in to Boston. We rode around on one of those tourist trolley tours and saw the sights. Here’s some of my faves:

Yep, he's down right happy all right.

The sleeping deck of the USS Constitution. Sailors slept in hammocks 3 inches away from each other. I guess there's no alone time when you're fighting the War of 1812.

The Union Oyster House, which is the oldest restaurant in the world (or something).

"Boston Harbor Shore Line Circa 1630" engraved in the stone walkways outside of Faneuil Hall. This is either because of the change in sea level over the years, or because most of Boston has been built by filling in the ocean using landfill. (Dubai didn't invent that you know.)

I have no real comment other than "Whaaaa?"
