[Barlibash] Stuff to do in Boston

[maegwen]

Oh, you see – a SAILING tour would be soooo awesome. I love those schooner
ships. I just am wondering – when do we have time to do these things? I am
not up on what the schedule of “events” is, but I think Friday and Saturday
are booked, right?

Thanks for the linkie, mal :)

Re: the Freedom Trail, they have walking, bus-riding, and SAILING historic
tours. Below is info on the sailing one, which I thought sounded like fun.
I've done sails on a historic schooner ship and they're fantastic.

Oh, and the Freedom Trail IS fun, if you are into history or even
cursorily interested.

What is the Freedom Trail: http://www.thefreedomtrail.org/
Virtual Tour: http://www.nps.gov/bost/freedom_trail.htm

Oh, and if anyone is into old (and I mean *old*) cemeteries, Boston has
many historic burying grounds:
