I'm in Andover for 2 nights and Plymouth for 2 nights.  What are the top 5 things I should do? Also, what is the best reasonably priced chowder place?

I haven't been in greater Boston for like 30 years and my family has never been.  We have an event tomorrow but have no plans after that.

Do a Duckboat tour.

Just walk around downtown.  Boston Common, Faneuil Hall.  If you're into history, walk the Freedom Trail, see the USS Constitution.

Eat in the North End. 

If you've got time, pick up some cheap tickets to Fenway.  Check out the.Red statue on a bench outside Quincy Market, and Russell outside of the Garden.

I can't help you with the chowder.  If you want a great sandwich, I recommend Sam Legrasse's.  They're not open on weekends though.

Boston Chowda company is in Faneuil Hall. 👌

Also, Mikes Pastries if you are in the North End. 👍

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Should go to Foxboro and take a picture of the great goat (Brady) statue (just don't wear your Ravens gear in Boston, as I'm sure the Pats Faithful would hate it  ;))

Lots of green and Celtics shirts for this portion of the trip.  Ha.

My wife and I love walks downtown - charles st, public garden, back bay, north end. When it works out timing wise I love Bricco Salumaria in an alley off Hanover st. Old-fashioned Italian deli - flatbreads across the ?hall?.   Dang good. Not sit down but can walk to Rose Kennedy garden. Newbury St is nice (and expensive); Boston Public Library - worth seeing on Boylston. But not sure your kids would be crazy about a day that my wife and I would enjoy.

A little hokey but Eataly is an ok place for lunch - lots of choice, can gab and eat outside or they have sit-down restaurants there also. It?s in the Prudential Center.

City of Boston sucks.  Do yourself a favor, get to south station and take the train to NYC!

The Fenway Park tour was quite nice, if they have it.
