Boston is a beautiful city with Brown buildings and trees. But actually it’s also not too far from the sea. That makes us love it even more. Bedford, Burlington, and Chestnut Hill are the small towns just 20-30 minutes to the city. You can see big houses with huge lawns and trees, lots of people love to live there since they also have good school districts. However, we are ocean lover, we would love to go straight to the beach.
“Manchester by the sea” how a beautiful name, it’s really the official name of the town. It only takes 40 minutes from Boston downtown to there. It totally changes what you see.
If you haven’t heard the city before. You definitely want to watch this movie. “Manchester by the sea” https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4034228/ Yes. It’s a sad story but it does tell you how pretty this town is, how it connects to Boston, how people love about here. It also cheers you up after you finish the movie, life is short but real~
It’s a beautiful town, the library, the church, a random white house on the street are just so pretty and serene. Even the police station is right next to the sea…..
This is the little harbor in the back of the police station. You could see this in the movie, too 😛
It’s interesting to see the train run across the town which is a big scene in the small town!
There is small restaurant in the town. It’s not busy during the weekday and we got some cool drinks along the way~
This is the beautiful beach in the town, “Singing Beach”, what a beautiful name as well. I guess we see almost everyone in town on the beach at this beautiful day.
super cozy~
You can play with water in the end of summer.

You can’t miss the lobster when you at Boston, especially you are so close to the ocean.” The Causeway Restaurant ” at Gloucester, 10 min away from Manchaster by the sea. https://www.yelp.com/biz/the-causeway-restaurant-gloucester?uid=nlNABlYyvOFxxJBC7xTDnw&utm_source=ishare
We wait like half hour to get in. It’s a very popular place. People said they are good price for good portion. See how big is this lobster! How many mussels you got from one order!
The bread, the fish chowder, the clam strips! It’s just a lot lot and very juicy and tender!
If you wait too long for the restaurant, you can also try the ice cream store next door. It’s very good, too! https://www.yelp.com/biz/holy-cow-ice-cream-café-gloucester
