Wandering around downtown Boston, part 1

Yesterday (ooh: finally I can start to type without the page randomly reloading itself, erasing what I have written) -- yesterday, I say, after spending several hours at home in Salem I boarded the bus to South Station (well, in fact, it is the Haymarket bus, but this week, it is the South Station bus -- after 3 PM, which it was). I purchased walnutty treats from the Rosie's Bakery counter and took the subway to Park Street. I had it in mind to stroll around and gawk at protesters and the like, and take pictures.

( a few randomly sized pictures, each under 80K, and a fair amount of text )

Yesterday I strolled around the general vicinity of the DNC with a camera. See my post from earlier for the beginning.
