This was our last trip to downtown Boston!! We once again took the train & exited at Park street, which lets you off at Boston Common. We walked across the street to the botanical gardens to ride the swan boats. The ride was very short but we all enjoyed it. (see top row of pictures)
Next we went to see the "Make way for ducklings" statue.
Then we walked to one of the many churches in the area. On our duck tour, our guide told us the stain glass windows were made by Tiffany & his son before they became jewelers. They were beautiful. (Center pictures)
We passed by the iparty store where Amelia Earhart used to work (we assume it was not an iparty at that time:).
Lastly, we stopped at the frog pond on the common to eat ice cream & let the kids play in the water. It was another very hot day!!
As a side note, Jillian absolutely loves the Power Rangers. She watches all the many variations of the show on Netflix, and there are many variations!! (Mystic force is her favorite) I happened to find a Power Rangers shirt in the boys section as I was shopping for Carter. I decided Jill might like it so I brought it home for her. I was wrong, she didn't like it, she loved it!!!!! She wore it night & day for about 3 days, then we finally said it had to be washed. Eventually she and I realized it didn't even have any of the girl rangers on it but she wasn't disappointed, she doesn't like the color pink anyway.
