Boston (Massachusetts)

*** I've finally solved the mystery of why the links I've posted are not working. For some reason dooyoo decides to add a space in between year_book and 08 which completely messes up the link. If you are interested in seeing the photos you just need to remove the space that dooyoo have added*** There's one point I always fear when about to go on holiday and that's my dad at airports. He's usually quite a strong minded person and an aggressive driver but mention that we're en-route to Heathrow airport and he will go weak in the knees and be so awkward and paranoid and be such a difficult man to be around. I feel sorry for the check-in lady who had to put up ...  Read the complete review

Boston is one of my favourite cities for many reasons. I first went there last summer and can't wait to go back. I love Boston because there is so much to do, when I was there I went to Quincy market which i right in the centre of town and has such a mix of different shops and stalls. Its also brimming with street entertainers, all of whom were actually very talented and great to watch. (Although it was the summer holidays, this might not be the case all year round). I also spent a lot of time at the harbour side, which is so beautiful and some of the yachts there were about 6 times the size of my house, they were incredible and apparently one was owned by ...  Read the complete review

Boston is a city like no other - the only city I have been that combines the pleasantness of a European City with the delight of a US City. I spent three months there last summer and plan to go back as soon as I can. There is so much to do, so many places to see it would take a lifetime. In my opinion on Boston, I am only going to give some essential information about it and some of my favourite things about it, but it is still quite long. If you plan to go to Boston, try and spend as much time as possible!! Believe me its worth it!! ~ ~ ~ Arrival & Transportation ~ ~ ~ Most people will in arrive in Boston through Logan International Airport. There are ...  Read the complete review

While visiting NYC I decided to take a day trip to Boston. It costs about $60 for a few hours coach journey and is it well worth it. Boston is totally laid back city compared to NYC, the people are generally more friendlier and helpfull. Clothes are a big bonus as they have 0% sales tax compared to 8% in NYC. There is one street I think Newbury street where you have all the clothes shops from Emporio Armani, Guess to Donna Karen plus some urban street wear(try some pimpgear t-shirts). Staff are all very welcoming and first to lend a hand unlike the attitude in NYC. Even the security guard saved my wallet from being stolen as I left it on the side by a pay ...  Read the complete review

Last summer, well in terms of years because we all know about Britain's weather, was really special as i took a trip to the states and visited New England taking the lovely city of Boston. I stayed in a hotel on the very edge of the centre, very close to the two biggest buildings in MAS. The Prudential Tower and The John Hancock Building. A trip to the top during the day and at night is most reccommended as you get to thw hole of Boston if the whether is fine. The centre of Boston is brilliant, with shopping areas, bars, restaurants and cafes as well as quincy market, a food court lasting the length of the old building with multi-cultural food on offer. Also the ...  Read the complete review
