Boston, Massachusetts
Boston, located in the eastern portion of the state, is Massachusetts capital and most populous city. Walking along the streets of Boston is like walking through history—with the antique street lanterns and historic architecture. It was the sight of the Boston Tea Party and the Battle of Bunker Hill. The city commemorates its rich history at the Freedom Trail in Boston National Historical Park. Other must sees are Faneuil Hall, a waterfront shopping district with great nightlife; Boston Common, the oldest municipal park in the country; and Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox.

Traveling with a child
Has anyone traveled with a small child? My son is 14 months old and I'm a single mom. I would love to travel before he gets in school but not sure about the whole idea. Does anyone have any advice?
