My wife and I are heading to Boston for the weekend Friday. She's six months pregnant so we won't be doing the bar/club scene this time. History/art suggestions? We're staying at the Westin - Copley Place. |

Lets see this time of year: The Boston Aquarium Boston Common / Public Garden Boston Pops / BSO Museam of Science Museam of Fine Arts Boston Bruins Faneuil Hall - Shops Boston Ballet North End / Restaurants - Italian / Pastries *** Highly reccomended Back Bay Finer Dining Around Copley and the Common are higher end / designer stores esp around Newbury st. You are also close to the prude / john hancock bldg. which you can get some great views of Boston Theres a ton of stuff depending on what you want to do. My wife and I went into the city for the pumpkin festival lighting and our newborn dug it. |

Good suggestions. I second the North End restaurants. You'll find Italian restaurants there that rival any in the US. I'd also consider the USS Constitution or a Celtics game. The Patriots play an hour south of Boston (and about 5 minutes from my house). One of my favorite things to do in Boston, and hella inexpensive, was to catch a Northeastern University hockey game. World class college talent in a tiny arena for only a few bucks a seat. Faneuil Hall is a great place to eat, too. One of the best all around spots in Boston, great food, great shops. One of the oldest restaurants in the US is there. |

We'll put it at the top of the list. --- Quote from: ChadTower on November 28, 2006, 02:44:53 pm --- Faneuil Hall is a great place to eat, too.

I believe we'll definitely hitting at least one museum, as well. What about the Heritage/History (??) walk? We don't mind hoofing it and the cold doesn't bother us either. Just as long as it's not pouring outside. |
