20th Day Boston

Someone in lift today said there was 50% chance of rain pm so we thought we had better not mess around and get out early. However nothing opens before 10am so there isn't much accomplished early. Our mission was to visit Quincey Markets so were lucky that a lot of store holders, especially food were in a hall. It was great walking around looking all all the different styles of food presentation and combinations - a lot different to home. We also can't get over the portion sizes here - servings are so big! We also came across Cheers Bar (from TV show) but it wasn't opening till 11am. By this time it had turned quite chilly and Eric had worn shorts so he was not keen to wander in the open so we made our way to the waterfront where we were able to get a water taxi back. The sun came out and warmed us a little so when we got back to Constitution Dock we decided to look through the museum there before heading for "home". We also saw the Korean War Memorial which was quite impressive. It was opened in 1993, 40 years since the signing of the surrender. Off to our little eatery for a warming lunch before back to our room and a visit to the laundry to wash the jeans etc. The rain has arrived as promised and gets heavy at times so we were lucky. It is now 3.30pm and as it is showering, we will stay in our room and rest up.
