Thank You Bostonians!!!

My husband and sons just enjoyed a great vacation in Boston. I just want to thank the citizens of Boston for such a wonderful time. EVERY single Bostonian that we met up with was upbeat, helpful, polite and so much FUN!

Thank you Boston for such a great time. We were very impressed by how helpful you all were. Love Boston!!

4. I do love the public transportation, too, one of the great things about a city.

And one of the things I like best about Boston is that it's not like a lot of big cities, more like a collection of neighborhoods.

cruises in the bay and loved it. Sure some of it is kitsch but we were all very impressed by the friendly attitude we encountered by everyone. Next time we'll probably hit the kayaks and the islands.

I live somewhat North of Boston, but consider the Capital City to be the place to go
