Boston is cool! The waterfront is very pretty and the historical stuff downtown were interesting as well. Looove the subway system (who is Charlie and why is he on my card?), much cleaner, smoother, and roomier than the ones in NYC. I couldn't believe there were some with only *2* cars!

Also, I stopped by Cambridge for the Harvard stuff. I liked its traditional flair.

  - it actually started as a campaign song I think. There are numerous versions on YouTube but the original is Kingston Trio. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 08:23

    - Hopefully Long Island on Tuesday. Otherwise, perhaps Astoria in Queens. Going to Chicago on Wednesday anyway! -- nm - Hotkiss Jul 2, 08:25 10
      - best time for Astoria is late at night. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 08:27 9
        
        are you kidding -- nm - Hotkiss Jul 2, 08:28 8
        
        absolutely not. It's a Greek neighborhood and people stay up very late in the summer. All the cafes are open at midnight. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 08:30 7
        
        My friend lived in Austoria for years...loved that neighborhood. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 2, 08:39 1
        
        Awesome food, and cheap cheap cheap. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 08:39
        
        Oh that's cool, thanks for the tip, I'll ask my friend if I could crash with him that night. I'm still wary of late night commuting around here -- nm - Hotkiss Jul 2, 08:32 4
        
        Yeah, right around the subway station isn't good late at night, but Broadway and the other main drag (can't remember) are crowded. - loosilu Jul 2, 08:33 3
        
        OK, the main streets are Broadway, Steinway, 30th. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 08:35 2
        
        will look into it, thanks! -- nm - Hotkiss Jul 2, 08:37 1
        
        that's 30th Ave, not street. I would say 11pm is a good time. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 08:38
Charlie on the MTA! famous song. and you clearly did not go near the Green Line. -- nm - loosilu Jul 2, 08:15
