We’re shipping up to Boston! Dive deep into the culture of The Hub’s famous dirty water through the eyes of a Massachusetts native. Start your adventure at the State House, where you’ll discover exactly what’s underneath that big golden dome. Learn about the state’s rich history in the Great Hall of Flags and meet the man who invented gerrymandering.
Next, head to the Boston Common to see the Make Way for Ducklings statue. Dedicated to the classic children’s tale, it doesn’t take long to see why Robert McCloskey set his story in the Common.
Wrap up your day at Boston’s iconic Fenway Park. As the Red Sox and Royals duke it out into the bottom of the ninth, both the game and your adventure end in grand fashion as The Standells’ song reverberates through a rowdy Fenway. As we bring our travel series a lot closer to home, are you gonna be singing “Dirty Water” or saying “Wicked Pissah” to such a good time?
Thank you to our friends Jake and Amanda for their photos that are used in the thumbnail and in the video.
