Boston is a city I have been to numerous times, but each time I go, it feels like a new place. I spent many days going on field trips walking the Freedom Trail, gazing at the massive State House and of course, Blue Man Group, ha. Living in Rhode Island, it was always easy to access Boston for a day or weekend. I will gladly feel like a tourist each time I go because walking the steps of iconic people…
Recently having moved to Jacksonville, I was incredibly eager to explore all the day and weekend trip possibilities.
