Things that Entertain or Enlighten Me - Travel In the USA, Dining, Recipes, Good Reading: ESPN's Power weekend - sports/travel

Dear Friend,
I went to the ESPN travel/sports site that I have in my links to see what they're recommending in the way of travel with baseball and they have a great article about the Boston Marathon weekend - April 14 - 16. Boston will be hosting both a Boston Red Sox game and a Celtics game that weekend as well as the marathon. Then ESPN goes on to suggest other activities - like a walk on the Freedom Trail and lunch at one of the many eateries at Faneuil Hall Marketplace. That's exactly what we did while there and it was fun and interesting. I'll post a couple of pictures so you can see what they're talking about - Faneuil Hall Marketplace, and people on the Freedom Trail. I took the picture of the outside of Faneuil Hall - the inside is a giant food court that you could eat yourself to death in, but when the weather's pretty, it's great to go outside and eat. That's my group walking the freedom trail - see the red line painted on the concrete. I don't know how this happened but ESPN seemed to have left out shopping on Newbury Street (Back Bay neighborhood)- just a little bit of time on that lovely boulevard might be appreciated by the feminine side of a couple. We made Boston part of a fall trip to see the leaves in New England. But ESPN's guide for a perfect sports day in Boston is great and it would be a fun weekend. The article even tells us where the subway stops (T-stops) are that you need to get off at in order to get to the places they're recommending - including Fenway Park.

Thank you for stopping by. Hope you enjoyed my pages on Hawaii. Did anyone try t
