Whats to do in Boston?

Some teams have time to kill in Boston tomorrow and have been wondering what to do. Here are some recommendations:

(PS: I know you can google this up)

1. Walk the Freedom Trail - A two hour walk - do-able if the weather is good.
One of Americas' first historic walking tours, the Freedom Trail is the perfect introduction to Colonial and Revolutionary Boston.

2. Visit the Faneuil Hall Marketplace /Quincy Market
-A collection of boutiques, eateries and pushcart vendors housed in converted 18th century warehouses. Enjoy the street entertainers that frequently perform outside.

(Getting there: Green Line from Kenmore to Government Center)

3. Visit the Boston Common/Boston Public Gardens

(Getting there: Green Line from Kenmore to Park Street / Boylston)

4. Walk down Newbury Street: for some of Boston's most chic, fashionable stores.
You should also walk about at Copley (around the corner from Newbury Street) and appreciate the architecture of the myriad churches.

(Getting there: Green Line from Kenmore to Hynes Convention Center).

5. Take a look at Fenway Park: The home of the Boston Red Sox.It is a 5 minute walk from the BU School of Management.

Anyone who needs help getting around, or someone to show you around the place, do feel free to contact me or any of the committee members and we will be happy to help you.
