  • My husband and I visited East Beach today. There is usually a $7 fee to get into East Beach, but it was free today. I guess because it is a Thursday and slow season??

  • I went to the Seaport Museum to see the Great Storm movie. I was there on a Sunday and there was no crowd, and I didn't experience any bad customer service.
