Today was the last day of our fabulous circumnavigation of the globe. We spent about an hour just sitting in the shade by the pond in the public garden adjacent to Boston Common. Temperatures were forecast to get into the eighties, so we didn't want to do too much, especially as we were booked on the seven o'clock red-eye out of Logan, so we just watched the world go by for a while.

When we felt up for it, we hailed a cab and paid a visit to somewhere we had last visited in 1994 - the John F Kennedy Library and Museum out on the bay. It's a good place to spend a couple of hours in air-conditioned comfort, and it's also nice to walk around outside, where the tranquility is only interrupted by aircraft swooping overhead on their way into Logan, on the other side of the bay.

Eventually, the time came for us to get on our way to Logan ourselves, and the adventure was over.
When we get back, I'll have over 2100 photos to sift through and goodness knows how much video. The blog has had over 2500 hits and loads of comments. Thanks to all of you, and now we can look forward to seeing you in person again.
