Yoyo I remember your dark haired son but do you have 2 boys? Or is that a friend? Looks like they enjoyed the whole trip. <br><br>[color:green]SEND...ME...G5...NOW!</font color=green>

The blond kid is a friend of my son's. We figured (rightly) that travelling for a week or so without a friend would not be cool.<br><br> Alas, poor Yorick. -- Hamlet

Thanks for the heads up on the ferry. If I go to Boston next year, hopefully I'll have some time for some site-seeing.<br>Sounds like there are quite a few more folks planning on making the trip to Boston. Maybe a trip to the islands would be a good get-together?<br><br>

The inner harbor islands are a little scruffy, although they do have some nice picnic areas. A real fun day — and not too expensive — is to take the ferry (which docks a stone's throw from the expo center) to Provincetown.<br><br>Hey, donna can have everyone over for lunch!<br><br>

I'm sure Donna would love having us all over for lunch. <br><br>I think it would be a great plan if we could all go out as a group to have some fun somewhere.<br><br>

I haven't been back to metro Boston for years, but there are a lot of really fun places. Not quite on the same level as NYC, but then again, there's a lot of redundancy here, and sometimes the choices can overwhelm you. My fav 'hood in Boston is the North End. Mangia, baby, Mangia!!! <br><br>
