Boston on the 4th of July !!!!


We're happy to announce travel-ography.com has finalized plans to be in Boston over the 4th of July this summer !

This will be a wonderful trip to probably the best place in the whole world to be on the day our nation celebrates its Independence. We'll walk the Freedom Trail on the 4th of July, join hundreds of boats and thousands of revelers in the Boston Harbor, as we follow along with 'Old Ironsides' when she sails out into the harbor and fires her cannons in a 21 gun salute to our nation, and top off the evening by attending the annual 'Boston Pops Concert' along the Charles River with over a half million other people proud to call this 'our country'.

This travel-ography adventure is set to take place July 2nd through July 6th this summer. We have accommodations in a beautiful hotel right in the heart of the action. Easy walking distance to all of the July 4th events.

We also plan to 'drop in' on the 'Boston Pops' practice on the evening of the 3rd. We have a 'day trip' planned to Cape Cod and we'll also spend some time at the Kennedy Library and Museum. Our hotel is located right in the middle of some of the best shopping in the city (in fact, we're attached to a mall !) and great dining opportunities are all around us. We'll tour legendary Fenway Park, home of the World Champion Boston Red Sox....(and we're even open to extending our trip two extra days, so we can see the Twins play the Red Sox.)

There is so much to do and see in Boston and the 4th of July is the perfect time to be there.

Cost of the trip is: $895 (per person based on double occupancy)
$795 ( " " " " triple " )
$735 ( " " " " quad " )

This does not include airfare (since some of our traveling companions choose to use frequent flyer miles).

At this time we are able to secure airfare for $600 from Grand Forks or $350 from Minneapolis.

We do have limitations to the number of travelers we can include on this trip, so if you are interested, please contact us as soon as possible. Either call us at 701-352-1810 or email us at stevelarsonstudio@yahoo.com .

We'd love to have you join us, as we celebrate the 4th of July in Boston !

PS...Here are a couple more images from our recent travels to Spain.




Above is the beautiful bridge in Logrono, Spain. When the water is calm the view is stunning, as a mirror image really creates a cool effect. Our daughter, Abby, lives only 5 minutes walking distance from this bridge.



Here is our family enjoying a tradition very popular in Spain. Every night about 8-10 pm a group of bars or pubs offer 'tapas' (cool bar food) to their patrons. These range from mini sandwiches to stuffed mushrooms to mini skewers of steak or chicken, etc. They are fabulous ! Abby lives two minutes from this area.


Our family.....wearing off the 'tapas'. We're a pretty excited bunch.

By the way, don't forget the Beth Moore 'Living Proof Live' trip we're offering to the Target Center in Minneapolis. There are still some seats available on the bus and I can assure you this will be a wonderful time. See more details on the previous post on our blog, travel-ography.com
