Day 31 – Fenway Charm

Made my way from KC to BOS, w/a stop over in CLE. I’m staying in Wakefield which is a town north of BOS, but I’m only 1 mile from a train stop which takes about 25-30 mins to get into downtown. My hotel is right beside a lake, and my room was on the lakeside so I had a nice view out my room.

After getting checked in, it was off to find my way to Fenway Park. The best way I can describe it is, it has its charm. Not really the nicest looking, and the concourse feels like you are walking around a dungeon, but when you get out to the field there is a special feeling about it. One of the 1st things I realized was just how close the Green Monster really is. You look where the infield dirt ends and see how little green space there is between it and the wall. Having now seen a number of ballparks in person, you really notice the difference.
