Here are some photos of the Freedom Trail, with Dougal leading the way!
The gold-domed building is the State House, the seat of the Massachusetts State Government.
A typical Bostonian!
Boston Common: once upon a time cows walked across the Common on their way to market. Nowadays it's mostly Bostonians and tourists.
Paul Revere is a hero to Bostonians for his middle of the night horseback dash to warn the American soldiers of the advancing Brits.
Samual Adams, early politician and, perhaps more importantly, legendary brewer, is one of many prominent Bostonians who have their grave in the Old Burying Ground.
The Old State House, historically the seat of the Governor appointed by the British to rule this colonial region. The Governor would sit in his office high in the building with a view out to the harbour so he could see all the comings and goings.
