I could use some help planning a family vacation to the Boston area. We will be there for 7 nights at the beginning of August. Our plan thus far is to spend a few nights in Boston and then rent a car to drive around the area. We like history, science, easy hikes, natural history, seafood (2 out of 4 of us at least), and the beach. DS6 wants to sail on a tall ship on Boston Harbor while DS10 wants to check out a lobster boat. DS10 loved a book called Going Lobstering when he was a toddler. I told DS10 that I didn't know if that was possible. They also really enjoy living history places and National Park Junior Ranger activities. Visiting theme parks isn't high on our list. DS10 and I aren't big fans of very crowded places and DS6 doesn't like thrill rides. I have a few questions.
1. Where should we stay in Boston? I want to stay somewhere unique that's in the center of town and kid friendly. When we went to San Francisco last summer one of the things our family liked most about the trip was staying at The Argonaut. They loved the nautical theme, the giant fireplace in the lobby and the front desk treasure chest. I don't mind splurging since we'll probably stay in more affordable places since the rest of the trip.
2. Where should we go during our mini road trip?
