Nothing Much Else Happened: July 19, 1978

Today we finished the "freedom trail." We went through Paul Revere's house and the Old North Church, and then we came home and flopped on our beds for a couple of hours. I checked my pedometer and we walked 4 miles to give a total of 8¼ miles — and that's only the sightseeing! That's not including the movie we went to tonight. What a great movie! It's called "Heaven Can Wait" and it's one of the best movies I've seen all year! Oh, well. I'm tired gotta say goodnight.

Nothing Much Else Happened: July 18, 1978

Today we did something called the "freedom trail". It was this trail leading all the way out to Boston and all around it to the famous sights. We started by taking the subway out (my first subway) to Park Street, and from there we walked to Faneuil Hall. (That's where it started.) Well, we got halfway through it got so tired we came home and planned to do the second half tomorrow. The neat thing is that Mom brought my Pedometer and I can tell how many miles we walked. We walked 4¼ miles today.

★ Highlight Day

Today was the beginning of our long 5-week Eastern coast trip. We flew to Boston in 5 hours 39 minutes on a perfectly beautiful day. When we arrived in Boston, a taxi took us to the hotel we were staying in — the Holiday Inn in Boston. No, in Cambridge. Our hotel is located just out of Harvard Square. (The square is about 12 minutes walking distance) Well, tomorrow we start our sightseeing. We will go on something called the "freedom trail."
