Comment: At the edge of the docks you hit the waterfront. Lots of people congregate here for the cool views and telescopes. In the distance, the reddish building is the Hyatt, at which some conference people opted to stay.

IMG_0833 * There is a large plot of land known as Boston Commons. In the old days, a Commons was a free, communal area where anyone could come and let their animals graze. Now it's a park where lots of people can graze, or sunbathe. It was hot so it was packed. This cool looking fountain was the highlight of the Commons for me. * 1024 x 768 * (345KB)

IMG_0834 * Across the street from one part of Boston Commons is this building. I'm not sure what it is, but it has a gold dome so it must be important! * 1024 x 768 * (274KB)

IMG_0835 * We eventually made our way down to the docks where we saw ducks. I mostly just wanted to write the caption Ducks at the Docks so that is why this picture is included. * 1024 x 768 * (260KB)

IMG_0836 * Here is Rattapoom at the docks. It smelled like boats, old wood, the ocean and gasoline, which is a smell I really enjoy since I grew up deep sea fishing out of large docks like this one. * 1024 x 768 * (273KB)

IMG_0842 * There is a large aquarium near the docks which has an outside exhibit of seals. I see seals all the time in the Pacific, but this guy has a particularly great, grumpy face. * 2048 x 1536 * (740KB)

IMG_0844 * Here is a shot of Boston as the sun begins to set. I don't know what buildings these are, but since I am a pretty terrible photographer, this is about as nice as my pictures get. * 1024 x 768 * (242KB)
