Default Things to do in Boston?

Anyone been to Boston?
I'm on a training course over there (well - a 10 min ute cab ride outside the main city) for a week next month and have thanks to the lovely ladies int hte travel dept have managed to swing it so I get a couple of extra days over there.

Anyone got any suggestions what to do/see while I'm there?

We got back from a couple of days there 2 weeks ago.

Newbury St is the main shopping strip, all outdoors though. There are a couple of indoor malls if the weather is bad.

Samuel Adam's Brewery tour
Harvard Uni - the students were moving in, was like a scene from American Pie

If you decide to get a pizza, Upper Crust on Newbury St is spot on. Don't try buying alcohol if you look under 30 without a passport either, driving licence doesn't suffice unless USA.

We also drove down to Hyannis and got the boat to Nantucket. A lot of the New York bankers head there, beautiful island. Some nice yachts moored there too.

That filled our days before heading to upstate New York. Stunning city and plan to return in July next year.
