Boston is great--my wife and I have lived here since the beginning of June, and unfortunately the answer to your question is "what ISN'T there to do in Boston." There's the freedom trail, Boston Common, and also great walking tours if you like that sort of thing, plus all kinds of other stuff around the city, like the Salem witch museum (which I haven't been to yet, but I hear is neat--a ways out of the city, though) or the Old North Bridge in Concord.

But if you're sticking with things in Boston proper, the best part is that you can get anywhere fast and easily on the T--best public transit system I've had the pleasure of using.

Are you staying downtown?
