Explore Boston!

Jessica grew up just outside of Boston and Colin lived there for almost six years, so the city holds a special place in their hearts. Here’s some recommendations!

-Stroll through the Boston Public Gardens and take a ride on the Swan Boats. Don’t forget to visit the “Make Way for Ducklings” statues. They are personal favorite of Jessica’s.

-Enjoy some art at The Museum of Fine Arts.

-Follow the Freedom Trail throughout the city to see many historical spots related to the American Revolution. Highlights are Paul Revere’s home and Old North Church. These are conveniently located in the North End, the Little Italy of Boston, a great area to spot for a meal and some cannolis from a number of iconic spots. Modern Pastry or Mike’s Pastry are to name a few.

Closer to Dover and The Connors Center

-Wander around the Massachusetts Horticultural Society - The Garden at Elm Bank. The gardens are beautiful and feature a manor home designed by the same firm that designed the New York Public Library.

-There are plenty of wildlife reserves and sanctuaries around to walk through and explore. The Mass Audubon’s Broadmoor Wildlife Sanctuary and Peters Reservation are close by to The Connors Center, just to name a few.
