Crowds estimated at near 1 million people have gathered in the snow
and rain to honor the Patriots in their victory parade. All parking
lots in and near Boston are full and public transportation both rail
and bus have been filled to capacity all morning.

The Pats will ride the parade route in 24 Duck Boats.


I've visited Boston three times on business trips. While I was
"working" the wife checks out the city. On one trip she took one of the
duck boat rides and the driver/captain let her pilot the vessel once
they were in the water. She was thrilled!
