| Our 1st stop - The USS Constitution - Oldest commissioned war ship in the world. Never lost a battle or was boarded by enemy troops. Bunker Hill Monument in the background. |
 |
| I don't think our Oregon boater's card will give us the chance to take the helm of this ship. |
 |
| The sides of the ship are 21 - 28" thick with live oak sandwiched between white oak. |
 |
| Gun deck - most of those cross beams are about 5' 10". Sleeping quarters about 5' 8". Average sailor 5' 4". Marines 6' 1". OUCH! |
 |
| Monument at Bunker Hill - 294 steps and all four of us took the stairs to the top. Tired, but we made it. |
 |
| Boston Harbor from the top of the Bunker Hill Monument. USS Constitution in lower right. |
 |
| Our last dinner in Boston with Bruce and Sharon- Great traveling partners. |
