At the 22.10.2005... Take-off to the USA... Already the second time this year.
In other words, I went to the WiMAX World conference in Boston this time.
I slept at the Park Plaza Hotel. Boston is a wonderful, totally un-American city. It's delightful in the English style. In Boston, there is so much to see and you can eat fantastic steaks and Seafood there. However, Boston is also a very expensive city. The conference I visited, took place for 3 days... consequently there didn't remain much time for sightseeing unfortunately. Nevertheless I saw a lot.
Here's a listing, you should see on your visit to Boston):
Boston Common park, Public guards, Freedom Trail, Prudential Center, Prudential Skywalk observatory, Christian Science Church, Mary Baker Eddy Library and Mapparium, Marlborough Street, Newbury Street, State House, Beacon Hill, Faneuil reverberation Marketplace, New England aquarium, Imax Boston, museum of Science, Cambridge Gallerie, Chinatown, Downtown Crossing, Seaport World Trade Center, Cambridge, Harvard, Salem (25-min outside from Boston), forecastle Bay, North End, Trinity Church, Copley Square For me the best was Harvard (university), Newbury Street (with the many small businesses/shops) and Salem (the witch-city simply).
Unfortunately, I had to leave a day early, otherwise I could have experienced Halloween on the 31st. However, it was something else itself, the 30th, incredible.
Restaurants: one must, is Legal Sea Foods at the park Square.
I can also recommend, the pub Skipjack it is in Clarendon Street... a nice restaurant with fish-specialties. And if one would like to eat a steak, you must go to the restaurant “The Capital Grill” in Newbury Street 359.
It was picked in 2002 to as Boston's best steak house. A table should be reserved to avoid disappointment.
