East Coast Road Trip - Boston

After our night in Connecticut, we drove down to Boston where we stayed for three nights and four days. I loved it there and would love to go back repeatedly. Kevin has an aunt, uncle and some cousins who live there, so I'm pretty certain we'll be back soon. 

I love searching and researching places to stay, things to do, restaurants to eat at, and hotels/motels/bed and breakfasts. For trips like this where I know we plan to walk a lot and get out to explore, I refuse to spend a lot on lavish hotels. I also love the quaintness of a sweet bed and breakfast. I found us a room at Oasis Guest House which worked out perfectly. It was just around the corner Berkeley College of Music, super close to the T (which is their train system), and about a mile away from Fenway Park

I'm also a huge fan of asking the locals what to do, where to eat, etc. The guy working the front desk at our B & B suggested Trident Bookseller and Cafe. So cute and very good! 

Kevin is a huge fan of beer! He loves drinking it, making it, trying new kinds, learning more about it, and going to any brewery we come across. We knew Sam Adams was in Boston which we had intended to try. But, while at the wedding in Philadelphia, someone suggested we go to Harpoon which had free tastings in the afternoons. We were sold and had a blast...and the beer was delicious too!! Can you tell I loved Boston?
