At the end of the night, we took Katie to see The New England Holocaust Memorial. On the way to see it, I tried to explain the holocaust to Katie in the simplest terms. It's a hard thing to explain to a seven year old. After that, we went to see the site of the Boston Massacre. Hmm...when you put it in writing it sounds like a rather depressing last two stops, but we love learning about and from history.
I didn't think the Holocaust Memorial was the place for smiling, but I tried to smile a little for my picture.
This circle represents the place where the Boston Massacre happened.
The massacre was right outside the Old State House.
By the time we headed home, I was pretty tired. It was a great, but a full, first day in Boston!
