Oh, I think we stayed at that Westin. It was very nice!
Boston has the best Chinese food anywhere. Try the shrimp and lobster sauce with the meat/black bean sauce. It's very different and so much better than the eggy yuck we get in Philly. DH has family in Boston, and we always take a cooler to bring home Shrimp and Lobster Sauce whenever we travel up there.

You will want the old town trolley. you can get tickets for it in fanueil hall.
this will take you along the freedom trail, you can hop on and off all day for one price.
You can see the constitution, the north end, fanueil hall, beacon hill, old state house, new state house, charles street (make sure you check out the wooden signs all carved)
Check out the purple window panes on beacon hill, created over 100 years ago by mistake and never been able to duplicate.
Trinity church, the rose kennedy park way, the fountains, the carosel, quincy market, boston common, boston garden. ALL on the old town trolley tours.
I would skip the duck tour because you can see more on the old town trolley AND get on and off. you can't get on and off the duck tour.
Make sure you go to mikes, go to the left when you get in the door, it moves quicker! (just like disney)
My sister's company (payroll princess) owns fruitlands museum! In sept. in Harvard there will be lots of apple orchards with pick your own apples. check them out if you have time.
bolton orchards is about 2 miles down the road from fruit lands and is fun. going in the opposite direction is bolton spring ochards. more expensive but great apple crisp.
If you have any more questions about boston feel free to ask.

Thanks Crazy PoohBear. We have done the duck tour in Philly and the Old Time Trolley In DC so I know how both of them work. IMO the Duck Tour is for the "fun" of it and the trolley is more for the convenience and education. I like them both and think they are worth the money.
Well the wedding is on Sept 19th (my cousins last name is Kucher) so if your sister is around tell her to look me up!
