For Duke, the last day of the lunar calendar in 2012 was a happy day. Because on this special day, in that strange country thousands of miles away from home, he was very lucky to not spend it alone. He began another journey in his life.

For Shu Ya, the last day of the lunar calendar year 2012 was an important day. During this day, she couldn't help but spend the first time alone with a young man in her life, and drank wine for the first time during the New Year's Eve dinner.

In the morning, Shuya wore a red short fashion down jacket, which was close and warm. With bright sky blue slim velvet pants, the two slender legs were set off to the fullest, and the curves of the whole figure were perfect. Paired with a white plush hat, scarf and gloves, and brown fur-collar short boots, a young and cute invincible girl appeared in front of Duke. In contrast, Duke, the dark blue dark-blue jacket, looks more like a follower.

As for the black backpack full of food in his hand, it was obviously specially prepared for Duke. Duke weighed the weight, but fortunately, it should not exceed ten kilograms, but if it were all dry food, it seemed that this would be enough for two people to eat for three days.

This girl is just planning to visit downtown Boston today, and she won’t find food. She is still preparing so well. It must be because of the free "white horse" command.

"Today, we will follow this map guide to the Freedom Road" and handed over the backpack to Duke, Shuya took out a thin simple map from it. On the A4 paper-sized map, a red line connects more than a dozen different attractions together.

"Duke, how much do you know about Boston?" Shu Ya raised her head, looked at Duke with a confused look on her face, and shook her head slightly, "Do you know that Boston should be the most famous old revolutionary base in the United States. Compared with Nanchang, the Central Red Army, the 1911 Revolution, Wuchang, the 1911 Revolution." Obviously, for girls like Shu Ya who have the qualities of emotional literary youth, it is their nature to understand the historical origin of a place.

"Apart from the Boston tea storm and the gunshots of Lexington, I really don't have much impact on Boston." Duke looked at Shu Ya as if he was heartbroken and admitted honestly that of course, he could still remember these two important events in history books more than ten years ago, which shows that Duke's own memory ability is still good.

"Duke, do you know? When you come to a city, if you know nothing about the historical background of the city, then you can only remember the city from its appearance, but you cannot deeply understand the true taste of the city. Such a shallow and simple understanding of it completely loses the fun of traveling." Shu Ya heard that Duke knew almost nothing about Boston, and she couldn't help but teach her a lesson in an old-fashioned manner.

"Boston dates back more than 360 years ago, and for the young United States, it is often called the oldest city in the United States. None of them."

"As early as 1620 AD, the first group of British Puritans who came to Boston were religiously persecuted. They sailed on the Mayflower Sailing Boat and went on a long and difficult sailing to reach the vicinity of Boston today. One of them was led by John Winthrop to establish settlements in the south of the mouth of the Charles River. Because many of them came from the town of Boston in Lincolnshire, England, they named their settlements after their hometowns. This is the usual practice of European immigrants from behind, and most of the cities in the United States are named."

"Because it is on the vast Atlantic Ocean, it is an excellent seaport, and its geographical location for trade with the European mainland is quite superior, Boston soon developed. By the mid-18th century, Boston had developed into the largest city in North America. However, the better the development, the more exploited it was. In order to resist the British government's severe exploitation of the colonies, especially the heavy tea tax, in 1773, the brave residents of Boston boarded three tea boats of the British government's East India Company, poured the tea into the sea, creating the famous Boston tea dumping incident, which laid the fuse of the American War of Independence."

"The conflict between the colonial government authorities and immigrants gradually escalated and intensified. On April 18, 1775, the gunshots of armed militias in North America finally started in Lexington, officially opening the prelude to the American War of Independence. Therefore, in the historical process of the founding of the United States, Boston played an indelible role." Shu Ya told Boston's history as she knew it, and Duke had nodded and received teaching.

It's a pity that this girl didn't write online articles. Duke disagreed and secretly complained. For him, this was just a relaxing activity, but he was not in the mood to study Boston history. Here Duke treats himself very concisely as a passerby.

"Okay, let's not say it anymore. I'll use it to tell you so much. You technical experts don't understand it. It's the same as understanding a person. It's not just about looking at the appearance. Next, we have to set off to the city center to enjoy Boston's famous ducktours, which is already a duck sightseeing trip." Shu Ya saw that although Duke was still serious, she disagreed on her face, so she put her mouth away.

"What kind of duck journey?" Duke was a little surprised. Could it be that Boston has some special services? This unbearable idea was rejected as soon as it arose.

Because it is as absurd as falling in love with Susanna with a cameraman. Children who are like Duke who have been thinking wrong can go to the mural circles to reflect on it.

"It's terrible to be uneducated!" Shu Ya made an exaggerated face and laughed. "You don't even know Boston's most famous duck tour, and I really don't know how you, a PhD in MIT, got the exam."

Is it okay if I was a PhD in Computer Science and not a PhD in Tourism? Duke was so ridiculed that he had a fever on his face.

"Actually, this duck swimming is a car that you men like especially. Do you know that during World War II, there was a kind of American water and land transport vehicle nicknamed duck? It is said that in the famous Normandy landings, more than 40% of the supplies were transported by ducks. After the war, Boston collected some retired duck transport vehicles for transformation, and converted them into an exaggerated shape that looked like a big duckbill, painted in colorful, and sprayed with the sailor Donald Duck emblem with wings. This kind of transport vehicle went ashore and started to water in Boston, and kept clamoring everywhere, so taking this kind of car to travel is the legendary famous duck swimming."

So that's the case, my buddy has gained some knowledge this time.
