Yummmmmmy! Also crowded but good for people watching.

I traveled here for work in late 2006. I had always wanted to go but always chose the beach and palm trees over the city. Going there has changed my mind. The architechture is amazing. The food is wonderful and I love the language. Since I was there for work, I didn’t get to do a lot of sightseeing, but II squeezed in as much as I could. I definitely want to go back and recommend it to anyone.

If you have the time and the money to travel, make the most of it by going some where else. I’ve been here several times for work and I groan every time I find out I have to go back. If you do go, stay at the Belagio. It’s the least gaudy of the casinos and has a nice light & water show in the evening.

I live 30 mintes from NYC and I still love going into the city. It’s got something for everyone… great restaurants, Broadway, lots of shopping, Central Park, street fairs, trapeze school, kayaking… and did I say GREAT restaurants. If you are traveling from afar make sure you do your homework before you arrive but also be flexible enough to rely on the concierge’s suggestions. They usually know best. And don’t think about the money you are spending. NYC is very expensive and you won’t have a nice time if you are pinching pennies.

Cambridge may be a strange desirable location but I love this city. It has such great energy… must be all those young, creative, great minds in such a small place. At only 7 sq. miles, Cambridge has a population of over 100,000 people! The city is clean and easy to navigate. If you find a legal parking space, leave your car there and walk, take the train or cab it around the city.

What’s not to love? I’ve been here 3 times and I love it more and more each time. The only thing I don’t like is that it’s a 6 hour flight for me to get there!
