I’m already walking toward that pig slide that went viral, what other shenanigans should I experience in this town?
edit: apparently i’ve been spelling Boston wrong.
The Museum of Science. The USS Constitution.

Also a bonus lesson in inertia.

Even better …… AS A DAD! I’ve had several sleepovers at MoS, Battleship Massachusetts, Cruiser Quincy, whatever that eco center is in metro west. Sleepovers are wasted on kids but it can be a blast shepherding them.
Dad-ventures can start early - my first was sneaking out of a cabin at daybreak, to go on a hike and give my little one his first bottle of the day at the top of a mountain in the Adirondacks
nice, i can walk there. google maps kept trying to make me take the ferry this morning from the airport but i eventually stumbled onto the blue line and got across.

Pahk the Ka in the havahd yahd
Go yell obscenities at Paul Revere’s house for waking people up in the middle of the night.
These words are accepted!
Oh sweet! Just what I’ve always wanted, a Shard Shovel!
Life before death!
Tours of Fenway Park are cool even if you don’t like baseball. Good food in the area, too. Go to tasty burger for lunch.
nice, i think baseball is nice in moderation. I’m wearing white socks, am i in danger?
Keep pointing it out to the tour guide, Im sure they’ll both love and appreciate the joke for the 10,000th time that day.
For clarification i’m seriously asking for suggestions, your responses don’t have to be serious though.
I’m stuck in Bostin for 12 hours, what should I do?
Learn how to spell it.
Learn how to not be a douche
Now now, thorbot. No need for vulgarity.
fair, i plan to move here so i guess i should figure that one out, lol
The freedom trail?
sound good, i’ll check it out.
edit: found part of it next to the pig slide, not at all what i was expecting. i am humbled.
Pig slide?
I presume he means the big slide in the new playground at government center. Adults keep going down and getting tossed, a video of a cop doing it went viral this week: https://www.wwlp.com/news/viral-video-shows-boston-cop-injuring-himself-on-childrens-slide-but-others-have-previously-issued-warnings/
Ohhhhh. Ok that does look fun.
i didn’t get near those speeds, must need to have your boots licked or something
edit: i’m wearing all cotton, i do have nylon slacks and a polyester shirt in my bag, if i can find a place to change i can give it another go. there’s a zillion kids on it at the moment so maybe i’ll try again omw back to the blue line later.
Get lunch and a pint at the cheers pub!
Makin’ your way in the world today…
Lots of things listed that, while fun, are pretty touristy. As a local I feel like I avoid those areas but here’s some food/drink spots you might check out:
Seaport: Drink
- I haven’t been here since COVID and some staff changes. But used to be a great bar. $$$$
Bar Taco
- these are apparently a chain, but pretty good food $$
Row34
- Great seafood. But expensive $$$$$
Back Bay Area: Faccia A Faccia
- great pasta. Close enough to the airport. Around a bunch of shopping if you want touristy things after $$$
- Bar Paloma in the basement has great drinks and staff. $$$ Hecate
- bar with great drinks. $$$$$
Cambridge (Harvard/MIT area): Take the red line toward Harvard/MIT. Hop off at Central and walk either direction. Pammys - really good food $$$$ Little Donkey - also great food $$$
Brookline: Go check out Coolidge Corner. Bunch of local shops and some food. Take the Green Line (C branch) towards Cleveland Circle and exit at Coolidge Corner
Fenway: I will second that Tasty Burger is amazing. There is also a couple cool museums around there. The MFA and the Isabella Stewart Gardner.
If you’re a beer person, I highly recommend parking near Citizen Publick House.
