Boston
A Freedom Trail you can walk in an afternoon past more Revolutionary history than most countries have altogether, a harbor that still runs the ferry to the islands, and a college-town energy that keeps the whole city young.
The best time to visit Boston is Jun–Oct, when typical daytime highs reach about 26°C (80°F). Local time there is 12:42 (UTC-4).
