In search of whales

Today is the day dedicated to the aquarium, the New England Aquarium , and whale-watching cruise.
The day seems to be good, there is full sun, but at least it does not rain as was forecast.
in the hotel and take a flight to a treat from the usual Starbucks well in advance and we are at the aquarium which is fairly close to our hotel, including the Long Wharf and Central Wharf.
E 'housed in the building design and modern shape and has a pool of seals "on demand" so that even those who can not visit the aquarium in a certain way to enjoy a part of the show.
In front there is a long row of ticket booths, stalls selling T-shirts, caps and offer bus tours, while nearby, in a strange building all over and covered with reflective panels, there is the ' IMAX , The film offers three-dimensional viewing of films related to fish and marine world.

The entrance of the aquarium

We have already bought tickets online to guarantee a seat for the cruise Wale Watch , so at 9.00 when the doors open, we make our entry without additional files.
From what we read and we thought we had seen from the images were larger.
The aquarium, however, spread over four floors that rotate around a circular pool that hosts high-oceanic species.
The ground floor is dedicated to penguins, actually three different species. The habitat is reproduced very accurately, the lights are very low to avoid disturbing the animals.
around the walls, however, there are several pools with tropical fish, amphibians and a workshop on sight and are home to care for the sick animals.
A ramp that runs around the central basin connects the floors.
The second is devoted to seahorses and freshwater fish, the third host species of the Nordic Seas, while the top you can see the top part of the central basin. In two areas
side you can also admire an exhibition of jellyfish, the pool with harbor seals and sea turtle rehabilitation center.

Although the New England Aquarium is not comparable in beauty to the Aquarium of Genoa his visit is still interesting for the different varieties of fish species that we have not seen is because it has a feature that makes it very attractive: its educational function.
Since the doors are opened until they are locked inside there are numerous interventions by the marine biologists who speak of the host animals, show how you care for them, feed them before their eyes visitors, in fact take place in daylight all activities that involve the management of an aquarium.
At any time you find a competent person who knows you and provide information that answers your curiosity. It 'a kind of approach that lacks a lot in our museums.

At the end of our visit we go to eat pizza at Quincy Market time and go back to the pier next to the aquarium from where the ferry to the Whale Watch , always treated by biologists New England Aquarium .

Again Here we have tickets for which we do not queue.
There are many people who board, a lot more seating available so that you can not see the view while sitting.
During the trip that takes nearly an hour and a half and leading off, as well as the islands of the bay, are given information about what you see around and then on whales, their life, their habits.
Unfortunately the engine noise and strong air can not understand a word.
spent an hour and a half times the ferry stops in an area where the sonar has detected the presence of cetaceans, we wait a bit, but can not see anything around, so we share still running as far away from the coast. Here
here that you can finally vadere a copy, but what a disappointment!

A whale

There is so much that it pushes people to see that in the end you can not see almost nothing. For more should stand still to wait for the whales re-emerge after their long apnea, however, the ferry is moved below where you see them more. Ultimately
vediano / we do not see four copies of three different species (at least according to one of the biologists on board), then, because it's late, is reversed course and will return back with great disappointment.
Honestly I expected something more exciting. Will I be seen and not seen a tail and a puff!
Too little time in which we stopped to admire the whales than it takes to reach the area of \u200b\u200bsighting.
It 's true that buying a ticket was guaranteed the sighting, and if not, a new ticket for a later date, but one thing to see a queue and is one thing to stand there and admire their evolution ...

To appease the disappointment we decided to go for dinner in one of the most popular restaurants in Boston: The Barking Crab .
This is a small place that is connected to a long-colored tent in which we eat at long tables with wooden benches sharing its place with other strangers. The atmosphere is very informal, the prices are very low and the food (mostly fresh fish) is excellent.

The interior of the Barking Crab

The wait can be long and should not just wait, especially at dinner, but worth it for dishes of crabs, lobsters and shellfish will. We dare
also sweet, a cannoli stuffed with ricotta, which gives us the final blow ..... how we miss the limoncello!

The Freedom Trail in Boston Battery Wharf

Accomplice time zone today we wake up very early, at 5.00, but resist end at 7.00 before heading out to enjoy Boston .
We chose to begin our visit here along the Freedom Trail, a walking path entirely marked by a red line that winds through the most famous streets of the city and meets all major attractions, places symbol of the American Revolution. As
visit the city of Boston is the most soft to know America, so the Freedom Trail is the best way to discover this city and its history.


The day seems gray, but when we go away it invests its a tremendous and soon released a nice hot sun.
We dive in the city. Around us there are people who do jogging, going to work with iPod and headphones in hand and the inevitable big glass.
The first impression is very positive, the city and on, but nice and clean.
lunch stop and a dedicated Starbucks, the coffee company of legendary U.S.. Given the hot
dare we take a Coffee Frappuccino with apple muffins. Unusual
both, the milk shake coffee ice cream a little too much for our habits and muffins tasty but heavy.
portions, then, are extra. With such a breakfast arrive until mid-day!

Before going to Boston Common where we began the journey through the Chinatown district of to admire the Chinatown Gate, an arch decorated donated by Taipei.
The district does not have anything in particular. Note, phone booths from funny shaped pagoda.

From Chinatown to arrive in short Boston Common, the oldest public park in the city. Here we make our first meeting with squirrels .... There are many, here and there that trotting meter magiucchiano acorns. The park is very nice. There are benches, ponds, manicured lawns where many people go to rest and sunbathe.

We go up a staircase at the edge of the park which leads directly to the Massachusetts State House , the capitol of this state.

not we stop for the free guided tour, but, following the red line go to the Park Street Church , whose bell White is a landmark for the city.

Beside the church is the Granary Burying Ground , a cemetery dating back to 1600 where among the many tombs are also of Paul Revere and Jon Hancock, heroes Bostonians. The site is unique in the stones bear etchings and stone decorations of skulls and angels.

Granary Burying Ground

Our next stop is the King's Chapel , a church not puritanical used by the British occupied Boston. The building is square and the entrance is marked by a colonnade. Inside, the aisles are banks closed white.

Even next to this church is a small, ancient cemetery very similar to the above: the King's Chapel Burying Ground.

D Jethro the church and the cemetery is Public School , the first American public school.

continue to follow the red line that leads us to 'Old Corner Bookstore Building , a building brick red of 1700 that once housed a library, all ' Old South Meeting House down to an Old State House and Boston Massacre Site .

Old State House

We face the oldest public building in Boston. All around is surrounded by skyscrapers, but its beauty does not go unnoticed. E 'from here that was read for the first time the Declaration of Independence.
visitamo the inside but I do not continue to Fenuil Hall, the old market hall which now houses shops sought-after products that remind the city and its history. Upstairs you can visit the room where the Puritans talked about unjust laws imposed by the British. A ranger at regular intervals of time, it emphatically illustrates the history and patriotism, which is typical of Americans.

Leaving Fenuil Hall we enter the building behind her home to the famous Quincy Market, where you can find food stalls offering all sorts of delicacies.
decide to dine there, choosing among the many proposals and making up the package on a bench outside.
Quincy Market is one of the hubs of the city, around the food market are BACARELLA selling souvenirs and T-shirts, stores also of some importance as Abercrombie, Crocs, Victoria Secret's and restaurants and bar with terrace outdoors.
After lunch we continue the Freedom Trail going to visit the Paul Revere House , the most Boston's old house inhabited by Paul Revere. And 'nice and small wooden building that you can visit to pay and which there are rooms decorated as if it was inhabited by this character.
The visit is short, the cost may be a little excessive, but the house is a small gem that unfortunately can not be photographed from the inside.

Paul Revere House

The itinerary leads us now to Old North Church, the oldest church in Boston was reported from whose tall bell tower with two lanterns ta the advances of the British. This site also holds considerable significance for Americans.

Not far from there is on a slight hill on Copp's Hill Burying Ground , another old cemetery, the largest, where they were buried merchants North End

From here a long walk across the Charles River to reach Charlestown where is the USS Costitution , the oldest U.S. Navy ship still in service. The
visit after passing through security. It 's very beautiful, polished, and deserves a visit.
Next door is the ' USS Constitution Museum which tells the story of the ship and the U.S. Navy with games, panels and scenery very suitable for children.

Leaving
we head towards the last leg of the Freedom Trail : the Bunker Hill Monument, a tall obelisk built in memory of the battle and the culmination of which is the same name has the view of the city. Unfortunately we discover that you can not go to the top because they are in the course of work and its walls are hung with large scales that are losing value to your photos.

To accommodate the ranger who explained to us, always with great patriotism, we decided to see the monument Bunker Hill Museum, a short distance, where it shows the battle and its events, always with a very didactic style .

Our Freedom Trail ends here. Finally, we should say, because although we are very interesting and useful to know Boston, it was exhausting for our feet!
return to the USS Costitution later in the dock and take the Ferry Boston that at a cost of $ 1.70 each brings us back to the Central Wharf .

Back to the hotel for a quick shower and then go back to Quincy Market to find a place to dine. We choose Cheers , the pub restaurant inspired by the famous TV series. This is a replica of the original located in Beacon Street.
Dinner is excellent, the portions generous, informal but attentive service and affordable price. We recommend it!
That concludes our first day in Boston ..... there already are in love!

The Fairmont Battery Wharf is a four star hotel overlooking the bay of Boston Battery Wharf just up to the dock. And 'situated in a quiet location, about 5 minutes from the Central Wharf and 10 minutes from famous Quincy Market .

Why choose a four-star hotel in what is perhaps the most elegant city in the United States ?

not really us who we chose, but that he chose us.
When we were looking for a hotel, Mark was was very impressed by the photographs and the fact that outside the hotel overlooking the bay, but the prices were quite high within our reach.
So we booked through booking.com another structure of the lower level.
After a few months, however, covering up to comparison trivago hotel on Boston I noticed there was an offer on the Battery Wharf Airways much cheaper than that offered by the hotel and so we decided we wanted to change reservation and stay here.

The hotel consists of four rectangular-shaped bodies, each with four levels.
E 'without doubt an elegant hotel in which we try in every way to put customers at ease. Here you have everything you need surely!
Our room is on the second floor of the Admiral Wharf. It 's very spacious with a king size bed, large LCD television, desk, telephone, minibar, iPod dock, a large bathroom with shower and separate toilet area.
It 'also a Nespresso coffee machine with capsules and tea bags for free.
A wonder!

Our king room

There is also the possibility of access to Internet fee (around $ 15), but free for those who joined the Fairmont President's Club Marco joined a few days before departure and then usufruiamo supply and the very next day we can navigate without any problems.
The service, as I said, is exceptional. The room is prepared twice a day, morning and evening. We have always found it clean and tidy.
There is a large window overlooking the dock outside, which is pretty quiet so there's not many noises from outside.
If there is a defect that can be found, however, is the internal noise. The walls are thin and although the rooms do not seem to adjacent live, often feel the noise coming from the corridor.

Inside the structure are also two restaurants, one inside and one on the terrace.
until now have tried them and I will not do it although there were highly recommended: they seem a bit too refined for our tastes.

In general, however, is a marvel!
