Re: Hey KHZ! Im going to be in town July 8-12
depending on the level of luxury you require a hostel would be a better bet than a hotel. there is one in brookline that is decent (bu used it to house graduate students for orientation) but i can't remember the name. google could probably tell you. hotels are probably all mad expensive.
you could walk the freedom trail, see the uss constitution, take pictures with the metal make way for ducklings ducks in the boston common, visit the fens late at night, go to a red sox game (if you have the ducats, i recommend finding a scalper a half hour after the game starts, or get a chick to hang around the scalp-free ticket window because i've been offered free tickets after the game starts a few times), count how many times you hear drivers shouting obscenities at each other, play the how-many-bmw-x5s-will-i-see-in-the-next-five-minutes game, duck boats are always fun but cost ducats ($40? $50?), eat seafood at legal seafood, walk down newbury street and feel poor no matter even if you are not, and go to a gay club (machine on boylston st i hear is pretty good if you are male). you could play pool at jillian's across from fenway or go to a sports bar or something too i guess.
OH MAN maybe we could make the wednesday ride on the 8th a tour of boston, that would be great. we can probably find you a loaner, maybe your friends too if they are mopeders. i could fit a small person on the back of my moped if one of you is wee and has high self esteem.
it really depends on your ducats but i love bukowski's in davis square for food, deep ellum in allston is good but they have a tiny menu (the lunch time grilled cheese is awesome), sunset bar and grill in allston (NOT the cantina on comm ave, this one is on brighton i think, huge plates that are delicious), also t. anthony's in allston (this is a really bare bones grinder/sub shop type of place), and if it's hot there's excellent ice cream at this place in landmark center (corner of boylston and park drive), NOT the cold stone's, it's across from cold stone's, the name is unimportant but it's tiny and they have good ice cream.
i live in fenway so if you are out that way and are lost give me a hollah.
