Sail Boston '09
We went on Sunday, the final day. I was bummed out I had to work on Monday when they left under full sail.
Here are a couple shots. One of the piers with the smaller vessels.  One of the more well known restaurants in the city. Had lunch there and were lucky enough to get a window seat so we could watch the constant stream of private boats cruising by the peir.  The line to go aboard the first ship.  I was fascinated by these ropes for the main mast sails.  Security was omnipresent. Two cops with cruisers on every corner and the coast guard hanging out near the piers.  Only one with some sails showing.  Can't have any public event in Boston without some Minute Men showing up.  |

Thank you for pictures of the docks, and piers, and people, of Boston. Outstanding.
