This shows a group of sailing students being towed back from their daily lessons on the Charles River. We were told that any kid in Boston who wants to take lessons only pays one dollar for six weeks of sailing lessong.
We were on the "Duck" tour -- WWII era replicas of amphibious vehicles (basically boats with wheels) that drove around Boston giving humorous historical tours, then plunged into the Charles River to give a floating tour. I actually was allowed to drive the "Duck" for about 20 minutes in the river.
The bridge in the background is the Leonard P. Zakim Bunker Hill Bridge, the widest cable-stayed bridge in the world.
