And you thought only spiders barked!

The Children's Museum in Boston!

Aidan playing a really neat game at the Children's Museum where kids

were encouraged to be active (the game was played by stopping on colored squares

on the floor). It was really cool!

Aidan trying out his rock climbing skills!

Aidan climbed this statue of Dolphins while we waited for our DUKW tour to start.

Aidan was really excited about going for a ride on the DUKW.

If you look closely you will see Aidan in the driver's seat under the supervision

of our tour guide "The Joker". He actually was driving while we toured the

Charles river.

Future DUKW tour guide in the making?

The trains arive and depart from North Station just below The Garden.

So I'm slacking a little bit on our Blog...I'll try to catch you all up. Allan, Aidan and I took a day trip into Boston on June 6th. We had a great time. We woke up and it was overcast so we scratched the beach off our list and decided to take the train ride into Boston. Aidan loved the train ride. We went to Boston Common, The Tadpole Park, Aidan rode the carousel ride in the park, we ventured over to The Children's Museum....which is a must see if you are ever in Boston with children, we had ice cream on the Boston Harbor, we went on the Boston Duck tours....when the duck turned into a boat and we were on the Charles River, our guide let Aidan drive the boat....HE LOVED THAT! If you are wondering why we spelled Duck DUKW please visit http://www.bostonducktours.com/duck_history_main.html for a little history lesson (it may come in handy in a game of trivia one day!) We did a lot of walking and sightseeing and Aidan got to ride on his first Subway, Bus, and Train! We got back to New Hampshire around midnight....we were completely exhausted but had a wonderful time in Boston. Such a great city....if you ever get a chance to go there, do it. We want to go again and stay longer!
