Day 5 - Finishing Up Boston

We decided to sleep in this morning but were still up by 9:00am. We had missed the hotel breakfast so we walked to a little pastry cafe and enjoyed breakfast.

After, we decided to finish up the Freedom Trail.  The route today brought us to Old Ironsides and the Bunker Hill Monument.

Once we wrapped up at Bunker Hill, we called an Uber for a ride to the New England Aquarium.  It was a fabulous little aquarium - that we all would highly recommend.  There was a lot to see and the animals were active so it made for a fun visit.

We decided to mix it up a bit and took the subway back toward the hotel, stopping short to find lunch.  Living in West Michigan, we don't often get the chance, so we enjoy it.  Plus it was on time and only a short ride today so it was quite enjoyable for us all.

We found a little pizza shop that was JUST what I would have pictured for a Boston pizza place and we LOVED it. Unfortunately they didn't have the breakfast slice that Sammy was hoping for, but pepperoni was an excellent substitute.

After lunch, we decided to walk back to the hotel.  We crossed the locks and enjoyed seeing the mechanics behind the large gates.  Once we got back, we took a break before heading to supper at a lovely Italian restaurant just a block over.

We had an outdoor table and all ordered the filet.  We shared sides of fries, carrots and garlic bread.  It was another excellent meal and after we walked home full.

Once back in our room, we decided to make it a movie night and climbed into Sammy and my bed to watch TV together.

Tomorrow we will pack up and check out for our next stop NYC.  We are all looking forward to it!  Plus Scott is flying in Friday to join us.
