Due to Virgin Atlantic's silly prices it turns out it's cheaper (even after hotel etc) to fly me out to Boston in the US on the Saturday rather than going out on the Sunday as intended. I was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on what I could do with my free day out there, has any one got any suggestions? FWIW I'll be staying just over the river in Cambridge.

Search youtube for "Man Vs Food" - I recently watched an episode shot in Boston. Some good eating to be had.

In the words of Jimmy Price in Snatch...
"The food here is so good it'll make your bollocks tingle"

(Had it in San Fran, prices are fairly reasonable also for such a good restaurant, $200 for 4 inc 2 or 3 bottles of wine)
