Things I really enjoy in Boston: - The Museum of Fine Arts, right across the street from Northeastern - The Freedom Trail, a self-guided walking tour of many historic Boston sights This goes through the North End, which is a nice place to walk around all on its own. - The Boston Harbor Islands (requires a ferry ride) - The Rose Kennedy Greenway, if it's a nice day - The Public Garden and Boston Common
More conventional touristy areas, which are all still nice: - Newbury St, the main upscale shopping area, which also has some nice places to eat - the Aquarium - Harvard Square Sam, ex-Bostontonian On Sun, Sep 22, 2013 at 11:30 AM, Eric Hanchrow <eric.hanch...@gmail.com> wrote: > My wife and I will be in Boston a day early (Friday).
