T / subway: Take the T subway...

    Getting TO/AROUND: Fly into Logan Airport or if you're driving
    the best way to get into Boston is to park your car and ride in on the MBTA subway. Otherwise, traffic can be awful with construction everywhere and parking hard to find (cost is high also).

    I'm on the Blue Line and when friends come in for a visit, we go to Boston on the 'T'. We get off at State Street because it's right next to the skyscrappers (exciting for country folk) and only one block away from Quincy Market in one direction and one block away from Government Center in the other direction. This picture was taken at the Aquarium station.
    If you're staying right in Boston, I suggest taking a taxi or the subway to get around.
    Just look for the big T sign. Outbound leaving the City ... Inbound going into the center of the city. If you're not sure which direction to take, someone will point the direction out.
    So pick up a subway map and a Visitor's Pass ($6.00 for a one day pass) http://commerce.mbta.com/passes/visitor/
    Rent a car if you're heading OUT of the city to explore the surrounding Boston area tho.
    Hey, New Hampshire is just off Interstate 93-N north from Boston. You want to see trees, lots of trees? The north country is where I'm from and you'll find lots of trees and lakes up there. I LOVE New Hampshire!! It'll take some time but I'll get pictures up for NH also. Come back and visit often.
