He shares historical anecdotes regarding the city, including its history of being burned by the British and the mystery of how nineteenth century masons cut large stones without modern diamond saws. The tour moves toward the waterfront, where the creator visits a restaurant located in a boat called D'Amelio's to discuss local seafood options like steamed lobster and chowder. He observes the changing leaves in late September and notes the presence of cruise ships in the harbor.
