. I've never been back since, for while I'm
grateful, although I hear there are parts of Boston that are actually quite nice (Cambridge area perhaps?) -- Louis L. Perley III N46000 In spite of what I had written about driving in Boston, it's a great city and area to visit. First of all, it's compact, great for walking. The North End is Italian, clothes lines going from building to building, and it's a short walk from downtown, Beacon Hill and Louisburg Square, the waterfront, all that good stuff. Cambridge on the other hand is someting of a blue collar town, with several obvious exceptions. For a truly remarkable experience, though, I recommend you find your way to Concord, where it might be route 62 that crosses the Concord River, and rent a canoe. Go downstream to the Old North Bridge, where the shot heard around the world was fired. It's a magical experience. Go upstream, you'll experience some of Thoreau's inspiration. Then there's this: after driving around Boston for awhile, you'll disconver driving in your home area (unless it's Paris) is like being the 800 pound gorilla. BTW, Boston in a snow storm is a graduate class in Offensive Driving. |
