And one for the picture book people

On our way from the airport to Concord we took a couple of hours to walk around Boston. We stopped by the Public Garden long enough to visit the famous sculpture based on Robert McCloskey's Make Way For Ducklings.

I checked the book out of the library today, because it had been such a long time since I read it. I had forgotten the illustrations of the pond and bridge. They look a lot like my own photo. How cool is that? We saw plenty of real ducks and geese too, which were the original inspiration for the story.
