Flights from Houston to Boston have been incredibly inexpensive for some time, and it is a very short flight from Toronto. Although winter isn't the best time to visit Boston, we made the most of it and explored the city. The weather was brisk, but not crazy cold, so we managed to walk the city and have some good seafood.

Tom and I flew into Boston on Saturday morning, and connected at the airport before heading into the city.  We took advantage of the relatively sunny weather to explore the city.

Although it was still cool, Sunday was bright and sunny with some clear blue skies, so we headed out and explored a different area of the harbour in South Boston.  After a nice refreshing walk, we made our way back to the hotel and on the airport for our afternoon flights.
