Boston, what can one say that hasn’t already been said. This town has more to offer any visitor or local that most. Downtown caters to history lovers, foodies, university students, theater folks, sports fanatics, and everyone in between. Best time to check out this town is Summer or Fall, winter being for only the brave. While a top 10 list doesn’t do this town or the surrounding areas justice, it’s an attempt to crack open this city.
- Absorb a little of our nation’s history with the Freedom Trail
- Check out Fanieul Hall and Quincy Market for tasty eats and some light shopping
- Watch a Red Sox game at Fenway. If you can’t get a ticket, go to a nearby bar and enjoy the city enthusiasm for their boys while sipping a Sam Adams

I’ve been around the Boston area so many times it’s amazing I haven’t taken the time to explore such a historic city. Next time I’m in the area though I won’t miss it!
