We had an uneventful flight from Lisbon to Boston. It rained
overnight, but the next few days were unseasonably warm. It’s a good thing I
dragged winter clothes across Europe so I would be prepared for the cold and
snowy November days in Boston. So, I put my shorts on and we did the entire
Freedom Trail. We took a free guided tour of the State Capitol and found it to
be interesting and beautiful.

Courtyard at the Gardner Museum

The next day we went to the Gardner Museum. It the type of
art museum you either love or hate. It had a great garden, but I didn’t like
that you had to download a QR code for each room and then figure out which
descriptions went with which pictures. Later we went to an Immersive Vatican
show. They make the art and architecture of the Vatican come alive. Immersive Van
Gogh and Immersive Monet are also available. Viewing tip, it is a 360-degree
projection, so after watching the entire show switch seats to the opposite wall
and watch the part you missed.
Old South Church

Is this a monument to beggars?

The next day we flew back to Maryland. This time the Uber
driver did not get lost.
