Simple.. it is too cold and New Englanders as a group demand a lot for a buck while still valuing time... hence the Boston driver and its evil twin.. a BMW with CT plates..
Mostly the weather... it can still kill you here, summer and winter.
Maybe sometime I will land their or in NY and take a vacation going by subway either other side as well.
Boston was one of our favorite trips.
Vancouver was another.
Loved Juno Alaska.
Pisa and Rome Italy.
Barcelona Spain was great.
I liked going to Turkey to historic sites years ago, now you can't go IMO.
Venice Italy had great shops but is a toilet.
Africa is beautiful but too dangerous now.
Been through the Caribbean several times and you have to love the beaches and water.
But Boston with it's history and historic sites and buildings was a TOTAL pleasure to visit. I will go back.
