Boston, MA, Part 4: Plymouth

Sorry to say it, but Plymouth Rock was sort of a let down (sorry).  
 
We attended the Plymouth Branch on Sunday morning.  Ben was part of the Hingham ward, but that has since been split and some members were moved down to be a part of the Plymouth branch.  So we went there so he could see some old ward members/friends.  We went to sacrament meeting and then spent some time talking to some people.  

After that we drove over to see Plymouth rock and the Mayflower II.  Now I can atleast say I've been, but I don't know that we'll make the trip again.  But, it was still good to see it.

Here's the rock that the Pilgrims may or may not have set foot on.  I was actually kind of confused about the whole story of it, but I will never profess to be a history buff.  It's not my favorite subject of study.

Mayflower II built to re-enact the landing of the original Mayflower.

I really wanted to see Harvard campus, but we ended up not having enough time.   We had to catch our flight home, so when we next get to make it out to Boston hopefully we'll make it there.

  He said he hasn't breathed so well in a long time.  (The dry Utah air does something to his nose.)  He could actually breathe for a whole week.  It was a wonderful vacation and so good to spend some time with Ben and seeing him "at home".
