Public Garden, Boston, MA, these swan boats are a 130 year old tradition and a great way to take in the grandeur and solitude of the garden and the surrounding city all at once. http://www.swanboats.com/
Kevin, what a gent you are - fancy remembering my interest in these. I'm constantly touched by the thoughtful kind gestures of lots of folk on here - it restores one's faith in human nature. Now I want to go back to Boston and ride in one...
@vignouse You're most welcome, Richard. You do really get what you give. If you find your way to Boston, please let me know. It would be a real pleasure to treat you to a ride. Thanks, as always, for your comments and encouragement.
