If you have the time, take an hour drive south on rt95 to Providence and go to Federal Hill.

What part of Boston are you staying at? The Combat Zone is virtually gone but you can find an occasional hooker there!

You can head up to Gloucester or Salem as suggested or head down here to the Cape. It's not too crowded with tourists yet.

Take a walk around Beacon Hill and you'll find some great little restaurants on Charles Street.

Check out the site of the Boston Tea Party.
