Boat trip in Boston

Hi guys!!!

I want to share my feelings about the boat trip we did last wednesday with Mr Berman. Fortunately, the wether was very nice and we got an outstanding guide! I was very enthusiast to discover Boston because it's a beautiful city with a lot of history and I want to learn about the city where I'm going to live during one year.

The adventure began with a brief introduction of the Boston's history. The harbor is situated between Cap Ann and Cap Cod it's one of the most important in all the united states, particularly for the economical aspect with a lot of trade of good by ship. My first impression was that the harbor was very clean. It shows that the cleaning project whose has cost 6 billion dollars works very well!

I was very surprised to learn there are 34 island around the Boston area! And they all have an utility whose have changed during a lot of years like prisons, hospitals, military bases...

3 of all this island are used for the airport and some housing for the poor has been built in an other.

It was also very interesting to learn that each island has a name like "Spectacle island" or "Moon island".

Mr Berman told us that the "Bid dig" or the central Artery project has completely changed Boston but it cost 18 billion dollars!

I want to thank Mr Berman for this trip.

See you all on wednesday!!
