The Swan Boats, Boston (Old Home Week)



The Public Gardens and the Swan Boats are such favorites of mine. I think I've ridden perhaps twice in my life but it is nice to think that such an old (since 1877) tradition is still alive!

Current fares are: adults - $2.75; children - $1.50; seniors - $2.00. Sounds like a bargain to me. Visit this site to read about the history of the Swan Boats of Boston.

My favorite! Boston Bak-ed Beans (As my Grandfather used to call them) wouldn't have been the primary fuel source, I'm sure. Wonderful vintage images, Anita!
