...besides Bob!

I'm spending this weekend there and want any first-hand suggestions you may have, especially if it relates to food.

Go to a comedy show

Check out a museum

and there's always the Duck tours which most locals despise, but I went last year and thought it was cool!

Get on I-90 drive as far west as you can, *poof* you're in Seattle!

Have a cup of coffee, throw some axes, then eat some salmon.

In between freezing my ass off I went to Harvard which was cool. The JFK museum/library place was really good and went to see Shear Madness Madness I tell you! (https://www.shearmadness.com/)

I know I would want to go to Fenway. Meh, I'm such a tourist.

I think you should really consider Bob. (y)

Or atleast go to the yogurt shop that he works at, and say "hi".

I went to some place called Feniul (sp?) Hall and that was fun. Apparently it's pronouced fan-yul. I pronounced it how it looks with a french lilt, fan-we. Everyone thought I was talking about Fenway. :|

:( What about me, Nicole? :(

Fenway tour is cool. I did that a few years ago when a friend was here. Freedom trail is cool too! And free! I've seen that show Shear Madness and it was hilarious! We also have Blue Man Group here if you're interested in that. There is also this movie tour http://www.bostonmovietours.net/ I did the walking one a couple years back.

Fine, you can do Bob too. But, please be careful, his shy act is just that, an act. So guard closely your heart because he is like the Scott Baio of Boston.

HA! Holy crap bean town is like 1hour 30 from me.
Ironically, I don't ever really go to Boston.
But, I would say shopping on Newbury Street is great.
And definately go to Bodega. (http://www.bdgastore.com/bodega/newsite/contact.php)

PM me when you get in town. Have a safe flight.(y)

the inside of that bar is nothing like the show and the fries suck if i remember correctly

theres some line in the ground that you can follow around town and i think somewhere along the line theres this awesome looking bar that looks like its 200 years old with black paned windows that i think i wouldve liked going to
