Well, the good news is that Boston%26#39;s Downtown is very compact and you can get from one area to another easily by either walking or taking the T.

The most shopping is in the Back Bay, near Copley Square. There are two nice malls, Copley Place and the Prudential Center, and our version of Rodeo drive, Newbury Street.

The two Comedy Clubs are located near the Waterfront, in Quincy Market and in the North End, That is also the area where many of the historic sites are located.

So you choose.... Or you could stay in between at a hotel like the Omni Parker House.

Hi,

I suggest looking around the Back Bay for your hotel. The Lenox, Marriott Copley Place and Westin Copley Place, Courtyard by Marriott Copley Square, Copley Square Hotel, Eliot Hotel and the Colonnade Hotel are good hotels with easy access to the shops of Copley Place, Newbury Street and the Prudential Center Shoppes. They are all easily accessible to the green line T for travel to Harvard Square and Fanueil Hall Marketplace for more fun and shopping.

For laughs, we have the Comedy Connection with live stand up and a couple of improvisational type comedy shows called Shear Madness at the Charles Playhouse and the Improv Asylum on Hanover Street in the North End. Any of the three will provide you with a night of laughter.

All three of you should take the Boston Duck Tour. It%26#39;s a fun way to see Boston for the first time.

Consider taking a lunch or dinner cruise on the harbor as well.

Being from New York, you must take a tour of Fenway Park!

That%26#39;s really a small sampling of ideas. Be more specific in what you all enjoy and there will be more to follow. Enjoy your time in Boston!

Thank you so much......you made my job as the group planner for the weekend much easier......
