Which he certainly did. A teen-ager's perspective of Boston made we realize what an amazing Piped Piper this city is for students, who are everywhere. Any time of year is a great time to visit Boston, but I must admit that summer is a high point. The Charles River comes alive with crew teams, kayaks, canoes and cyclists zooming along the paths. Bright-red flowers cascade out of window boxes especially in the North End, the Italian section.
People stream to outdoor cafes.
Night or day, the action is outside in the streets, along the river, in the heart of town, as well as in the neighborhoods. While Boston offers many different experiences, it's the city where I feel the most American, where our glorious heritage is everywhere. The past and the present coexist respectfully. Starbucks and the USS Constitution. Nowhere is this more apparent than when following the Freedom Trail.
