One of my favorite vistas in Boston is one you see when you’re headed northbound out of the city toward either New Hampshire or the northern suburbs. After you’ve snaked through the subterranean labyrinth that is the Tip O’Neill Tunnel, you suddenly are above ground and bathed in light as you ascend the Zakim Bridge with its gleaming white cables.
I don’t know if heaven has a gate, but if it does, surely it can’t be any lovelier than the Zakim Bridge arching overhead on a sunny afternoon.

Alas, we are always coming from Storrow Drive, so you only drive beside the Zakim when heading north. Dennis says he’s never driven on it! But it’s a lovely view even alongside.🙂

The only time I drive on it is when I take the Pike to 93 North. It’s surreal because you’re underground for what feels like forever, then you pop up into the light of day: hello!
