Regular Member CountryLovah Posted August 6, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted August 6, 2008 How exciting! Have a great trip!!! I've only been to Boston once and it was back when I was 17... A friend and I went there for a Bon Jovi concert.. There WERE fish involved, but only in the way that we all went to a seafood restaurant.. !!! Ya know, before all of this my favorite restaurant was a seafood restaurant in Philly called Gallos.. I haven't been there since I've loved my goldies this much..How can I eat the poor little flounder now??? MMMMMMMMM it's soooooooo good though.. Fried Flouder.. Or SCALLOPS. OMG I wanna go to Gallos!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member dickey_moe Posted August 7, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted August 7, 2008 Boston has the New England Aquarium. I haven't been there for 30 years but it should still be interesting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member thoughtsofjoy Posted August 7, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted August 7, 2008 Yay! Boston! Thomas and I spent the summer there in 2007! Try to do at least part of the Freedom Trail-- the only urban national park in the US! It's very interesting; lots of cemeteries (Paul Revere's grave!) and it ends at the world's oldest commissioned navy vessel, the U.S.S. Constitution. The downtown area is nice. Make sure you go to the Boston Common and the Boston Public Gardens; they are beautiful. There's lots of good shopping, too! If you can, take the Red Line (subway) up to Cambridge and visit the Harvard campus. Harvard Square is a really neat place, too, with lots of neat shops. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
