I can't think of anything else to add right now! I've visited a few of the places already, but have been waiting for the weather to be nicer. We've ventured out to Lexington and Concord. I really want to go to the Cape!! <br /><br />-Erica from www.bostonrookie.comEricaThomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16656819398886081518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-88612668915335443772011-04-20T11:33:58.268-04:002011-04-20T11:33:58.268-04:00Every spring or fall we have a day that is called ...Every spring or fall we have a day that is called "be a tourist in your own town" and it lets you try new activities and food in our area. My town is small but I always recommend people walking downtown and checking out stuff down there. We also have a minor league baseball team, a really nice public gardens and parks.The Many Thoughts of a Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12261949837343560602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-11021756290029130512011-04-20T08:07:08.257-04:002011-04-20T08:07:08.257-04:00You keep inspiring me to do more traveling and jus...You keep inspiring me to do more traveling and just to see the world more (even near my own home) but now I finally need to get out and DO IT! Nick and I never do anything touristy around town, because we rarely have friends come in town. And when we do, they are usually FROM Columbus! haha, I have a friend coming back to town tomorrow and she grew up here. We usually go to new restaurants though, which is always fun. Many restaurants are new to a lot of my friends who have been gone since college!Gina; The Candid RDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13034788087113648183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-13557887988865052042011-04-19T18:40:55.870-04:002011-04-19T18:40:55.870-04:00Ook, fun!

I had so much fun planning out the itinerary last year when the girls came to visit in August. We'll be doing some of the same things this year most likely! State fair... My favorite bookstores... The chain of lakes (might try to rent bikes this year!). There isn't alot of 'historical' things to do here... but Minneapolis is still a fun place to visit!Lisa from Lisa's Yarnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05335500882510597919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-23923618298415036992011-04-19T16:02:30.809-04:002011-04-19T16:02:30.809-04:00Super cute post!

Most people call in sick, go to the rally and etc. Oh, and ditto St. Pat's as we have a big Irish population/part of town.Norahttp://walkingwithnora.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-17805031173950095202011-04-19T13:05:54.856-04:002011-04-19T13:05:54.856-04:00FUN!

I have actually never been a tourist in our city before, I just feel like there's nothing really to do, but I bet there is plenty to do I just need to figure it out!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05185652640389232120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-48124844368551262262011-04-19T12:59:02.838-04:002011-04-19T12:59:02.838-04:00fantastic Boston and Cape list!

Tack on Paul Revere's House...Old North Church, you know if history is your thing. (I know they are on the Freedom Trail, but I think they can easily be separate activities) The ICA/waterfront are for sure good spots around here too!Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08465588525435241487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030496918044060645.post-71972099790584528552011-04-19T11:52:12.393-04:002011-04-19T11:52:12.393-04:00Ooooh I will definitely have to refer back to this...Ooooh I will definitely have to refer back to this when I come to Boston (eventaully) for the marathon!Marlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230997094889375925noreply@blogger.com
