Fun Things to Do

PhotoWalks - Beacon Hill Masterpieces

Beacon Hill impresses locals and tourists alike with its charming streets, brick sidewalks lined with antique gas lamps, hidden houses, unique doors, doorknockers, and detailed iron balconies. This 19th century neighborhood is rich in history, elegant architecture and Victorian homes.

Discover the grandeur of Old Boston in Beacon Hill. You’ll be transported to a different place and time. Stops include the Shaw Memorial, Beacon Hill’s picturesque streets, Acorn Street and Louisburg Square.

I am so excited to be supporting the First Annual Passports With a Purpose Fundraiser with a gift from the fabulous Saba at PhotoWalks. She’s donating a gift certificate for 4 people to have a FREE PhotoWalks tour. Each PhotoWalks tour includes fascinating historic commentary and fun photography tips on how to capture amazing photographs of Boston’s sites and attractions.

Choose from any one of five photo tours:

Beacon Hill (year round)
Back Bay (year round)
Freedom Trail (year round)
Public Garden (April – September)
Waterfront (May – September)

Value of Prize - $120

What is Passports With a Purpose? Travel bloggers from all over the United States are joining together to raise money for Heifer International, whose proven approach – almost 60 years in the making – is to help people obtain a sustainable source of food and income. Your gift of $20 could provide a family with a flock of geese and the hundreds of eggs those geese lay annually. $30 will provide bees and a beehive. $120 a new pig. or for $500 you’d provide a heifer and the 4 gallons of milk she produces daily.
