Most of today was spent traveling. Wanda took us to the bus at Rock Valley College. Gene and Tammy are leading the tour. All forty people were on time. Drove to Midway Airport, ate lunch and boarded the plane. We flew Southwest which does not assign seats. The flight was full and by the time we boarded, there was only a sprinkling of middle seats left. It was only a two hour twenty minute flight so no big deal. After landing, we were met by Dennis and bus we will have for the week. Took us to Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market. Both are very historic spots in downtown Boston. Tonight's goal was to find food. There were many, many choices with sit down restaurants and plenty of food court type places and seating. Chuck and I had clam chowder--very good. Another couple sat down and we started talking. They were from South Africa, had been in New England for a month and were going home tomorrow. Had a delightful conversation. Then we had some ice cream. The bus picked us up at 7:45PM and we headed for our hotel in Braintree, MA. We are ready for some sleep.
