Boston- June 3rd

WOW! WHAT A DAY!
Again we went to the city - two buses - we saw the USS Constitution. Seriously, I could spend all day on it.  Everything was so interesting! We also explored the USS Cassin Young - it was cool too.
We took a Ferry to a trolley that took us to a Duck Boat.  Our Duck Boat was really old - it was built and used during WWII.  The Duck Boat could turn from a bus into a boat.  We quacked at the tourists who were walking around.
While on the Duck Boat I sat near the Captain.  He said I was also a captain, Captain Jack.  I told the others all about the Great Dome of the State House that Paul Revere built. We passed the place where Paul Revere began his famous ride. 
I even drove the Duck Boat all by myself when we were on the water!
In the afternoon Ciocia Ada took us via subway to Harvard University. There I saw butterflies, whale skeletons, a giraffe and a squirrel. And I gave my first lecture - in mathematics.
At the end of the day we met Ciocia Ada's friends Caitlin and Dee in a super cool pizzeria. Caitlin and I re-enacted the battle of Bunker Hill with toy soldiers.
