Packed Sunday
Visited these historically important places in the history of American Independence. Lexington and Concord.
I still havent learnt reading parking signals in US. After failing to find the parking on the roadside, I got inside the parking space of a church on a Sunday morning. Looking at all those who were flocking inside the church at 11 am I was also drawn inside. They were offering Easter prayers. My first experience inside a church, as an adult, to witness catholics offering prayers.
I took this pic hesitatingly. I was the only ‘Black’ in Lexington’s catholics church. It was odd, but I managed.
Next to church in walking distance is Lexington memorial, in the middle of Lexingto Green ?
Visitor center nearby, helped me understand the importance of the place. Took some pics around the place.
Next destiny was American heritage museum. An old gentleman I met called this museum “a little secret”. A nice museum exhibiting on three themes – Freemason, Industrial Design by Raymond and American History. I read about a bit to find out about this secretive society Freemasonry. Am not sure I understood.
Great Meadows national refuge. It has a big lake and I guess birds fly in from far off places. I met this nice chinese family on top of the viewing place.
They directed to me North bridge , World war II memorial.
When I had just come home, my colleague asked me If I can join to attend this Bulgarian meet at spring step in Boston. Was exhausted already, but I did not want to miss out. Highlight of the evening was that post party dance, where every one dances hand-in-hand in circles…
