Last Summer, Matt and I celebrated our 13th anniversary in Boston. To be honest, we had flight credits that we were trying to use stateside and neither of us had been. Matt's always wanted to go to Fenway Park, and we both love history, so Boston it was! We had SUCH A GREAT TRIP! It really exceeded my expectations, and I might love this city now, more than NYC. 😬 We were there this exact date last year, so I wanted to make sure I captured our adventures.
Boston was beautiful, and so clean! We went to the Boston Public Library the afternoon we landed, and then had dinner at Toscano (which was amazing.) We stayed at the Lenox Hotel. One of the oldest boutique hotels in the city. It was DREAMY⭐
We went to a Red Sox game and Matt got to check the Big Green Monster off of his bucket list. The icing on the cake was the WIN against the Brewers!
On August 1, the night of our anniversary, we ate at an extraordinary restaurant called Mistral. It was by far one of the best places I've ever eaten.
The next day we walked around the Boston Public Gardens. Afterwards, we walked the Freedom Trail. Granary Burying Grounds, the Old State House, the site of the Boston Massacre, the home of Paul Revere, and the Old North Church were some of the most interesting to me.
Stopped at Sam Adams brewery to cool off half way through our tour.
Granary Burying Grounds
Old North Church - famous for its role in Paul Revere's midnight ride.
Site of the Boston Massacre
Old State House, where the Declaration of Independence was proclaimed
Paul Revere's House
We were pretty tired from walking the entire Freedom Trail, so we stopped at the ever famous CHEERS for a cold beverage. It's not at all what I pictured, but we loved it.
Our last day we toured the USS Constitution, the oldest warship in the US Navy and the oldest commissioned ship that is still afloat in the world. George Washing authorized the construction of this ship in 1794.
Afterwards, we had lunch in the Boston Harbor then went to see Bunker Hill Monument. Bunker Hill marks the first major battle of the American Revolution in 1775.

I loved this city and this trip SO much. We really had the most amazing time exploring a new place together. Cheers to 13 years together, my love! Can't wait for our next adventure.
