Boston

Once again I am a tag along to a big city. These trips usually involve some nice meals. The first night I passed on the "Clam Bake" for grilled swordfish. The fish was good, but why do they call a Lobster Boil a Clam Bake? WTF, I sat there with my little piece of nicely grilled fish, and everyone else is served lobster! (with some clams on the side). I learned not to make that mistake again, and ate two lobsters the next night. The third night was yet another "Clam Bake", this time on Spectacle Island, a former garbage dump in the Boston Bay turned into part of the National Park System. A 20 minute scenic booze cruise brought us to the dinner, a well run affair, completed by an intense sunset and walk on the beach.
