Boston

We escaped the Holiday Inn in Raleigh for one much closer to the city, which was both cheaper and nicer. We had some great views from our 9th floor bedroom. We took the courtesy bus into town and took a trolley bus tour of Boston. We had a particularly amusing guide who made the trip that much more enjoyable. On his advice we went to pizzeria Regina in the Italian district. After a short wait outside we went inside for a fantastic pizza - one of the best we've ever had.

That evening we went to Comedy Connection in Quincy market. The comedy was pretty poor that night, but the compere rubbed salt in the wound at the end of the night by telling us that Cedric the entertainer was playing a few days later -- how's that for luck.
