Best of Boston.

We found Boston to be an all-around swank city! Here are some of the highlights:

• The city resembles Seattle, with its waterfront and high level of walkability.
• Nearly all of its neighborhoods are incredibly immaculate.
• Boston Common is like a smaller Central Park, with great views of the cityscape all around. The difference is that it's wonderfully maintained and contains wacky swan boats.
• Newbury Street is the nicest shopping street anywhere--consisting of gorgeous brownstones with charming shops inside.
• Boston might not be the hippest place, but the colleges in the Cambridge area (Harvard and MIT) add just enough funk to the city.
• The "T" subway is clean, fast, and efficient.
• JP Licks features the best cake batter ice cream in the world.
• Fenway Park is the most electric place to watch baseball; the fans are certifiably insane for their Red Sox, and it's contagious. We got to witness David Ortiz hit a game-winning home run in the bottom of the 9th inning. It was definitely the most exciting game we'd ever witnessed in person.
• You can get the world's best blueberry beer at Boston Beer Works (across from Fenway).
