Siblings in New England - May 2019 - Boston

My brother-in-law, Kevin James, planned an arranged a trip to see sites in New England. Haley had left for Las Vegas to go through the Temple with a man she helped find the church so we put the dogs in the kennel.

Day 1 - Boston
We stayed at the Embassy Suites near the airport and took the subway to the Freedom Trail

Kevin and Kim learning about the subway
First stop was Boston Commons. There were a couple of folks dressed up to lead tours. 

I told them that we needed to get a picture with the "Make Way for Ducklings" statue.
