Kermitology, That's Wicked Awesome.
The wife and I were there for three days in November. Here are some of the things I personally enjoyed.
- Dunkin' Donuts... There's one every 5-10 feet and it's like Tim Horton's on crack. If you can find a reverse Boston Creme go for it.
- Buy a Boston Bruins Lottery ticket... Just for novelty of it all.
- I really enjoyed going to TD Gardens, which was a pretty quick trip on the Green Line (I think).
- Fenway was really cool, but it wasn't baseball season when I went, so it lost some of it's appeal. But it is a great place to go.
- Someone already mentioned this, but we really enjoyed the Ducktours. Sure it's a bit on the cheese ball touristy side, but if you only have a short time in the city it's a good way to see everything.
- The Science Museum (It's where the Ducktours start) was really cool.
As someone else mentioned Quincey Market and The Trail were things that we didn't get a chance to really take advantage of.
The one thing I would suggest not to do is go to Haaarvard. Unless you already have a reason to go and have your heart set on it, take a skip on it. We were really excited to go and then when we got there it was just a bunch of tourists and stuck-up undergrads.
(P.s. you'll also want to look at Legal Seafoods for places to eat (Celiac friendly Seafood). There are a few around Boston)
