  3. Been there everytime I visit - Newbury Street is just so hip...have you been to Cafe Jaffa? I think it's on Glouchester Street (hope I got that correct) - it's great mid-eastern food!

  4. Thanks for all the nice comments. Some of you are quite talented photographers while I'm more of a bumbling idiot with a camera in hand. Glad you liked the photos.

  6. Really, really awesome shots! They make me want to go for a stroll in the Back Bay. If you get a chance, it would be awesome if you posted them to Boston.com's Your Town site at http://www.boston.com/yourtown/boston/backbay/share/

  7. Was at the 45th floor of the Hancock about once a month for staff meetings. Nice views from there I'll give it that but that building does have a barely perceptible sway above the 30th floor.
