The Freedom Trail Field Trip

We had a fabulous time on our field trip today.  Our animated guide led us through the streets of Boston, teaching us all kinds of interesting facts.  Here are some pictures to get conversations started in your house.

What building is located in the background of this picture?  What did we learn about the roof of this building?


What unusual thing happened to James Otis?  What was the famous saying that we heard at this location?


Whose grave marker is this?  What is missing from his grave?


What is special about this table grave?
