Loran Smith: Beantown Beckons
Loran SmithDateline Boston, Massachusetts. I have come to Boston for a brief holiday and the excitement builds as you make your way here, a place known as “Beantown”; “The Hub”; “The Athens of America”; “The Cradle of Liberty”; “America’s Walking City.”
With the Red Sox winning four World Series titles since 2000, Boston now has a nice grip on the nickname “Titletown,” with the great success of the Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics and Bruins.
You come here for the food, the electric atmosphere, the sports scene, especially Fenway Park, the art museums and the water. Wherever you go there is nothing to compare with seeing the harbor, harbor lights and seagoing vessels.
