Ok this is a weird question but if you would take something home (if you lived out of state) that travels well and is uniquely Boston -what would it be? I am definitely going to get a shot glass for my collection, but what else should I get? For example in Texas I would recommend Hot Sauce or some Texas shaped memorabilia. [/B][/QUOTE]
A LOBSTER... Seriously, they have special boxes to carry them on planes and everything and you can even pick out the one you want...
I used to live about 20 mins out of Boston and I would highly recommend going to see a comedy show in the club above Quincy Market. We always used to have a blast going there. Go to the Aquarium too if you get a chance. Well worth a visit.
Damn, all this talk about Boston is making me homesick. I can't wait for XMas so I can go home...
As for the weather. Be prepared for anything.... and bring a camera because if you are lucky Autumn will be in full effect and the trees will be many beautiful colors
