My bf & I are going to New England in September and have added 1 1/2 days for Boston. What are the top things we should see/do while we're there? All suggestions are welcome.

The Freedom Trail is great. I was there for a 4-day conference a year and a half ago or so, this was one of the few things I got to do in my free time. It was in early September, nice weather for it. Also went down through the Commons area that was a nice park to go through. (part of the trail goes through it if I recall correctly) Somewhere out there was a mall area that had the Cheer's bar replica that was an actual bar, didn't go into it, but there were a lot of food places around there and a bit of a market thing going on. By my horrible description, maybe someone else can identify it  Hop on a train and head to Hah'vahd if you want to walk around there too, that was interesting just to see.

Thanks for the suggestions!! I'm not a baseball fan (sorry!) but do want to see Fenway just to say I've seen it. I'm a huge planner so this addition to my trip is warranting some research. I walked from my hotel down to the park and walked around it. There was a game going on that night, but I didn't intend to go to one on my own anyway. It was a nice walk, probably a mile and a half each way. Ended up stopping and buying a shirt, otherwise just took in the sights.

I've never been to Boston, but I've been told that you must try their Baked Beans and their Cream Pie.
