sigh, there is really not too much to play around at this time of year in Boston. It is much more fun in Summer or Fall.

Did you ever go skiing before? If not, there are some good places to go close to Boston.

If you like musem, there is Musem of Fine Arts close to Kenmore Square.

If you like shopping, don't forget to go to Filene's Basement in Downtown. You can find some good deals esp. not in weekends.

Another good shopping place is Coply Mall, close to Newbury Street.

6 days is kind of too long for Boston, why don't you split it up, and give 3 days to New York?
