Boston - Day Trips
Journey into American history on day trips around Boston.
Travel back to 1627 at Plimoth Plantation. The 'residents' never step out of character at the re-created living history museum. Nearly 150 years later Paul Revere alerted Lexington townsfolk of the impending British attack. Tour the Buckman Tavern where Revere and his Minutemen gathered the next morning. Ten miles to the west is Concord, also the scene of Revolutionary sorties, and Walden Pond, made famous by naturalist Henry David Thoreau. Go south from Boston to Salem where the 1692 witch trials took place. A town still witch obsessed, their image even appears on police cars.
