Boston Common Frog Pond

In our short time here in Boston I have seen a lot.  Mostly I've seen a lot of Target and a lot of the the playground!  ha  Oh, and a lot of boxes! So when a friend of mine invited a group of us to the infamous Boston Common Frog Pond, we had to take her up on it!  I was surprised at what a short drive it was from our house.  I forget how close we are to downtown Boston.  I mean literally, a few miles away.  I love having so much available to us, and so close too!  The weather didn't disappoint either, and the pond was the perfect temperature.  The kids loved it!

The wonderful part is that the pond is only about 6 inches deep, so the kids can wade around in it (even lay down if they want) so easily.  Noah didn't waist a second and got right in!

Clare was a little bit more cautions and sat on the edge of the pond with me until she slowly decided to make her way in.  I let her go at her own pace, and she ended up loving it - just like I knew she would!

Boston common was so pretty!  One of the girls made a comment about how it could be considered Boston's 'Central Park'.  There were boat rides, a carousel, a play ground, hot dog stands, monuments and a lot of grass to play in.  I hope that we can take a trip back there as a family soon!  I loved it! 

Next on my list to see.... the Cheers Bar! haha   Stay tuned!
