The Sheraton Tara in Newton Corner is my suggestion to those travelling to Boston with a car. Right on the Mass Pike, and bus goes right down town from there too. Easy to find and several places to eat in walking distance.

Alright got some more solid info on the trip. Monday June 29th to Thursday July 2nd in Boston at the Radisson Boston Common. Bar Harbor July 2nd to the Sunday July 5th. Returning to Boston by noon on Sunday July 5th back to the Radisson Boston Common. Leaving Boston Tuesday July 7th.

Would that Sunday work for a smoke for anybody? I know it's a busy weekend for everybody, wife keeps looking for the best deals and changes the days on me. If any of those days work or don't work i may use my veto power and change them for better ones.

changed my plans slightly. i'll be in Boston June 29 & 30 (mon-tue). then i head to bar harbor, maine for two days. then i return to Boston for July 3, 4, & 5 (fri-sun). hope having an entire weekend there might make it easier to meet some massholes.

Too bad you're not coming all the way to Newfoundland. You'd need more than a night though.

In any case, have a great trip. It sounds like fun.:tu

The half hour time difference really set me back when I was there...

I wanna see the whales, too. :)
Tell the little lady there's a 2 hour Blue Whale thing on the National Geographic channel. It just started Sunday night, it's a brand new show.
It's a little drawn out, but it's really cool. I bet she'll love it. :tu

allow at least half a day... maybe more... lots to see/do. if they still have it, be sure to check out the "surplus" store where you can buy all sorts of little doodads - i think mostly parts/raw materiel that are usually used to make other things.
