3 Day Massachusetts Itinerary: Day 2 🏙️

Slide 1: The Boston Public Library was high on my list to visit for this trip. So many cozy spots to sit down & read. So many nooks to explore. OH & they even have a bar located inside to order some fun cocktails too!

Slide 2: We officially began our hike of The Freedom Trail by FOOT! (Be prepared to walk over 20,000 steps if you decide to walk it)

Slides 3-4: The Freedom Trail led us to this Diagon Alley vibe of an area right next to Boston City Hall. Wish we had more time to explore this location as the stores & restaurants looked so cute!

Slides 5-8: A continuation of The Freedom Trail, featuring the Paul Revere (made me think of Noah Kahan) & Bunker Hill monuments, and ending at the USS Constitution which we got to go aboard!

Slides 9-10: The North End isn’t far from where The Freedom Trail ends off at & we were told by locals this is the place to be for all your Italian food/pastry needs. The cutest little area with a plethora of restaurants to choose from you can’t go wrong with any of them, but definitely make a reservation as they start booking up pretty early. In regard to dessert we were told Mike’s Pastries was good, but the line was around the corner so we tried Bova’s & idk Mikes may have some competition!

Hope you enjoy Day 2 & definitely save all these recs for your next trip there!
