Ms. Everett and I got a quick lesson on riding the public transportation in this wonderful city of Boston.  We traveled by boat, subway, train and private car (Uber).  Just getting from one place to another was a great life lesson for us.  We learned that it is so important to know how to read signs, maps, and apps on our phones.  <\/p>\n<p>We started our day off at the Museum of Science where we hopped on an amphibian &#8220;DUCK&#8221; vehicle.  These &#8220;Ducks&#8221; were previously used as trucks in the U.S. military during WWII.  It drove us through the streets of Boston, and then took us for a ride down the Charles River.  Our tour guide gave us lots of facts about Boston and other surrounding places, such as Cambridge.  It was informative, interesting and amusing.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/files\/2014\/11\/image1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/files\/2014\/11\/image1.jpg\" alt=\"image\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2344\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/files\/2014\/11\/image1.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/files\/2014\/11\/image1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After our ride on the &#8220;Duck&#8221; boats, we jumped on a commuter train bound for Salem.  Here we visited Salem Witch Museum and The Witch Dungeon.  I didn&#8217;t know the history behind the Witch Trials in 1692, but now I do.  Many people, mostly women, were wrongly accused of practicing witchcraft and were unfortunately condemned and several killed.  The tours explained how it all started and ended.  We even toured a recreated dungeon that showed what inhumane treatment was casted against innocent people.  <\/p>\n<p>Whew, living in the past sure wasn&#8217;t any easier than it is today.  I&#8217;m glad that we became an independent country from Britain and that we have the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights to protect us from such unjust treatment.  Lucky we are Americans! Proud to be an American!<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-2343 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/2014\/11\/11\/touring-boston-and-salem\/image-55\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/files\/2014\/11\/image2-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/2014\/11\/11\/touring-boston-and-salem\/image-66\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/files\/2014\/11\/image3-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/2014\/11\/11\/touring-boston-and-salem\/image-69\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/files\/2014\/11\/image4-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/2014\/11\/11\/touring-boston-and-salem\/image-71\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.ksbe.edu\/hesekolu\/files\/2014\/11\/image6-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Day 2 of my trip to Boston.
