Our trip has now taken us to the Atlantic Coast, and starting with Boston, our tour is set to follow the coast southward to Florida.
On our way east, we spent a few days in Niagara Falls. Pretty place but very commercial now days. And it is still in the tax laden New York State. A heavy consentration of Middle Eastern Muslims have (according to the natives) arrived during the past 10 years, and now seem to control much of the residential areas along the U.S. border. Obama would surely feel right at home there.
A 2-day drive took us just outside Boston. Really nice city for one it's size. And so rich with history. We stomped through Freedom Trail where the likes of Paul Revere and Ben Franklin once drank beer. Old Ironsides and Italian foods galore.
Then a bit south to the Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard communities. First stop was Plymouth Rock. Seemed odd to visit so many areas, some even dating to the 14th century. A far cry from cities of the west coast.
The separation of classes was rather apparent in the area. There was little evidence of poverty and most of the middle class fought traffic as they went into the City daily to work. But for the elite, things were very different. Most lived in the Hamptons near the Kennedy clan, or in the Vineyard and either used their private speed boat, or their small airplane, or used a water taxi at $75 each way to get into the City's financial district. The rest of the people seemed to be just tourists from all over the world.
Well, soon we will be through with this Left Wing way of life.
