Help! There's an alligator chasing me

At Fenway Park today, during a minor league game between the Red Sox AA Lowell Spinners and the Tampa Bay AA Hudson Valley Renegades, an alligator chased this little girl around the base paths. The little girl won the race and reached home before the 'gator. For the record, the Spinners won it in the 12th inning.

Baby

Picture this

Parents and their children crowded around the most popular attraction in the Public Garden, the Make Way for Duckling statues near the Charles Street entrance.

Click Here for a different view of the ducklings. I took this shot a few months ago when the park was a little less crowded:)

Girls just want to have fun!

What can be more fun than to run barefoot through a series of waterfalls while daddy and big sister (not in frame) have to wait. Girls just want to have fun!

Location: Leverett Saltonstall Plaza.

Tortoise and Hare Sculptures

Copley Square is known for its churches and libraries but for children Copley Square holds a different appeal - The Tortoise and Hare statues. What could be better than to ride a tortoise or hare off into your imagination. Who knows where they could go.

These statues were sculpted in honor of the Boston Marathon by Nancy Schon, the artist responsible for the Public Gardens' Make Way for Ducklings statues.
