We all should have THE list. Places I should go before I die. <\/span><\/p>\n

My list includes such places as Tuscany, Paris, Fiji, and Boston. <\/span><\/p>\n

Yes, Boston. There are so many more places to add to my personal list that are in the US and abroad but Boston always drew me in. <\/span><\/p>\n

Red Sox\/Yankee rivalry is unavoidable as a NYer. <\/span><\/p>\n

Late-night TV watching where everyone knows your name. <\/span><\/p>\n

Lobsta. <\/span><\/p>\n

History and so much more have drawn me to this city.<\/span><\/p>\n

How lucky am I to receive an invite to Winter Wonder in Boston by the <\/span>Greater Boston Convention and Visitors Bureau<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

4 days and 3 nights packed full activities featuring the best of Boston during chilly February.<\/span><\/p>\n

My mission \u2013 experience all and report about my very first visit to Boston.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taking the Amtrak From the Historic James A. Farley Post Office Building <\/b><\/h2>\n

It began on a Thursday taking us on a train ride.<\/span><\/p>\n

We departed from the new Moynihan station inside <\/span>Amtrak Train Hall in the historic <\/span>James A. Farley Post Office Building<\/span><\/a> which recently opened.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is just lovely. One of those \u201cit\u2019s about time\u201d thoughts at first sight while remembering the old Amtrak through Penn Station. <\/span><\/p>\n

The beauty of a train station is worthy to have this NYC address with a stunning sky lite.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shops and restaurants are still moving in and are more than welcome. <\/span><\/p>\n

I love a train. I believe it is perhaps the most romantic mode of transportation. <\/span><\/p>\n

Time to sit and stretch out, walk around and visit the dining car. A great people-watching venue. <\/span><\/p>\n

The mere 3 \u00bd hour trip goes by quickly. <\/span><\/p>\n

We were met at the Boston station for a quick ride to the Omni Boston at the Seaport Hotel. <\/span><\/p>\n

Staying at The Luxurious Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Omni Hotels have always been lovely. <\/span>Omni Boston <\/span><\/a>at the Seaport is stunning. <\/span><\/p>\n

A revitalization of the Seaport District is the perfect setting for the Omni.<\/span><\/p>\n
