Pack For Weather: Packing List
  • Tip Rating:
  • Luggage And Bags: A regular old roller bag is fine. Bring a small day pack or fanny pack for sight-seeing or shopping. Boston is a city for walking so choose a comfortable bag for your take-alongs. Try to fit an umbrella in your bag.

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: .
    .
    Summer:
    Summer can be very hot and humid, so dress and pack light.
    .
    Winter:
    We don't normally get a whole lot of snow in the winter, but it can be cold and icey so bring some shoes with traction. It's also pretty windy downtown, so a warm coat & hat are a must.
    .
    Spring/Fall:
    The weather is very unpredictable between seasons, so be prepared for freezing temps and mild weather all in the same week.
    .

    Toiletries & Medical Supplies: Boston can be as casual or formal as you want it to be. Pack for whatever you want.

    Photo Equipment: Always keep a camera handy. There are plenty of photo opportunities all around town.

    Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: If you like to roller blade, bring 'em. There are bike paths you can blade on and in the Summertime, they close Memorial Drive on Sundays for bladers.

     I did not know you can do a whale watching tour from Boston. I did it in Vancouver Island once. Its fantastic. Nice Boston pictures. I went to Anthony Pier 4 (hope its correct) for lunch many years ago.

     I've stayed at Morrison House twice now and couldn't be happier. Ron and Linde are super. She bakes something new for breakfast every morning. Yum! This place is a bargain for location and everything the hosts offer. They are truly wonderful people.
