Horror Business closed. You can cross that off the list.
Try walking the Freedom Trail if it's nice out.

I heard of a good show on the 19th
I am so bad with the tourist things. Been here since before they existed, but NEVER have taken a Duck Tour

Everyone says the Duck Tours are good, but like Shawn, have lived here my whole life and have never gone on it. There's a bunch of stuff around
Boston to do, Science museum, museum of fine arts, aquarium, faneuil hall marketplace, Boston Commons.

the duck tour isn´t that important. most inportant are recordshops and shops where i can get sport shoes and dickies stuff for small money...

I don't think the Revs have a store, but there are definitely places around town that sell sports team jerseys. I'm sure you can find one, probably
at Quincy Market.
And I actually did do a Duck Tour once. Honestly, it's pretty fun.

i must say i like that sightseeing stuff. watching old houses, visiting museums, going into lots of pubs to check the local brews. it can be
exciting....

You can go down to Gillette Stadium where the Revs play, they have a pro shop. It should be stocked with Revs gear, seeing the season is going to
start in a couple of weeks.

It's a little out of your way, but I recommend heading to Salem MA for an afternoon. Shit ton of history there.
I will not be going to the show for personal reasons, but if you want to meet up for some grub at some point I'm down! Just let me know when.

Salem is good (like Furly said)
Gillette Stadium is kinda cool you can see some Patriots (American) Football stuff in their museum, there are some other stores and shops (non
football related) and that might be your best bet for finding a Revs Jersey too. The Bass Pro Shop over there is something to see too. CRAZY HUGE
store!!
Armageddon in Boston is pretty awesome.
I'm not sure where to buy stuff like Vans & Dickies though.

They actually sell Dickies stuff at Walmart here in the states so that might be your best bet price wise.

history wise.
