Today was an amazing tour day. I got to see a lot of cool historical locations that I have read about before. We went back to Little Italy and saw Paul Revere's house. Next to his house was the North Church. North Church was a church that was used during the Revolutionary War. It was used to signal riders when the Britiah were coming. We took the bus around to see a graveyard where a lot of founding father were buried. We also got to see the State House and a Church that was an important location for the Abolotion and Women's Suffrage Movement. Nearby was MIT which is a college I did not know existed until now, but now I think I might want to go there someday. We then went to Harvard and ate lunch on campus at this place calles Bartley's. They had the best burger ever and the style of the restaurant was very... interesting. After that we went to Lexington and Concord where we visited some amazing monuments and historical sites. It was so nice to see how many different locations there are. In Oklahoma there are barely any major sites. In that area was The Manse House. The Manse House was a colonial house in Concord where a colonial preacher lived. He was a strong voice in the community and helped to gain support for The American Revolution. We stopped for dinner in a pizza place called UNO. For the rest of the evening we saw the rest of the freedom trail, such as George Church and The Old State House where the "Boston Massacre" took place. The view of Boston at night was breathtaking. All the buildings were lit up and it was just a great way to end the day.
