Aaron Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 My wife and I are taking vacation starting September 10th @ 12:30pm and going until Sunday September 19th. Our rough plan: Friday (10th @ 12:30pm): Drive to Put-n-Bay straight from work. We have a cabin with a bunch of friends to party. Sautday (11th): Leave from there heading towards Maine, spending the night somewhere in NY. Sunday (12th): Start traveling again and the goal is to arive in Maine sunday evening. (13th-18th)************* Sunday (19th): Leave Washington DC around 8AM and arive in Westerville around 4pm. ************(13th-18th) Here is where we want some insight as to which place to spend the most time (Maine/Boston/DC). We have 6 days for 3 locations. It takes only 2 or 3 hours to get to Boston from Maine, but 7.5 hours to get from Boston to DC. So in reality, 5 days for 3 locations. Here is our thoughts based on having never been to any locations. Monday: Maine (whale watching, light houses) Tuesday: Leave around 8am, arrive around 11am: Boston Wednesday: Boston Thursday: Traveling from Boston to DC Friday: DC Saturday: DC So 1 day in Maine, 2 in Boston and 2 in DC. What kind of activities/dining/events/must sees do you all recommend in the 3 locations? Also, would you guys shuffle the number of days? 2 in Maine, 2 in Boston, 1 in DC? etc? Please help us out, we need to make plans and reservations within the next 48 hours and are very excited. I know a lot of you guys have traveled and your insight would be appreciated. Thanks guys.

Skinner Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 while at PIB make sure you get some BBQ chicken from the chicken pit ( Its right next to the round house). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 If you have any specific questions about Boston LMK. I've been there about 5 times in the last 4 years. For Boston there is the Freedom Train that will take you through almost all of the cool historic stuff and its free! Fenway is also worth a look. There are nice views of the city to be had from the Prudential building(I think that was what it was called). Somewhat close to the Freedom trail is Mike's Pastries definitely worth a stop. Have dinner in little Italy but make a reservation if possible, the area gets PACKED. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Posted August 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Thanks guys, I'll take a look at the suggestions listed. As far as H2O, We already have the vacation scheduled or this would have definetly been on the list. How would you guys split your time up between the 3 locations?

Crossle Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 When I got to go to DC we were there for 1 day and I felt sorta rushed, didn't get to hit any of the museums. But we did have enough time to see the monuments. If you have NEVER been, may want to stick with 2 days if you are a sight see-er. If you have been once or twice I would think 1 day would suffice to re-visit the places you enjoyed/want to spend a little more time at. Another thought is that pending tourism seasons I would think a Saturday would be really busy at DC, I want to say we were there like on a Wed or Thurs. because it was mostly older folks and less tour buses of small children.

Miller Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 It sounds like you're going on vacation and coming home tired. Still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRN96WS6 Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Boston to DC is more than 7.5hrs......esp with traffic but still. What are you wanting to do in DC....typical sightseeing stuff? Mystic in CT isn't a bad place to roll through if you have the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted August 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 I have been thinking about the trip being a bit much car traveling. We both love driving though, so we will see. Might cut it down to Boston and DC to give us more time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Jones Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 Yes, walk around Newport, RI and eat lobster rolls and be happy. Very Happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
