Episode 89 – Boston and surrounding areas

In this episode we visited three areas. Lowell National Historic Park in Lowell, Mass which is a suburb of Boston.  You will need a car to get there (about 35 minutes), or you can look into taking the Lowell train (about 45 minutes).  Next, we visit Harvard University and the Harvard Square area.  We should have rented bikes.  Use Bluebikes.com.  We then visited the Boston Harbor Islands.  We went to Georges Island with fort Warren for the morning.  Ferry leaves from Long Wharf, which is very close to the Aquarium metro (T) stop.  A possible substitute would be Fort Independence, as it would save you the sailing cost.  You need a car to get there.  In the heart of Boston you have the Green Dragon Tavern and the Bell in Hand Tavern. Enjoy your time in Boston.
