This is the fifth and final post in my 2014 “How to survive a Boston winter” series. If you missed the previous posts you can read them here: BosGuy Tip #1: Book a vacation now, BosGuy Tip #2: Find a cuddle buddy, BosGuy Tip #3: Chocolate and BosGuy Tip #4: Visit the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.
BosGuy Tip #5: Embrace the winter. The axiom, if you can’t beat’em join’em applies here. If you live in Boston you will inevitably have to make peace with the fact that winter is here to stay so take advantage of the many activities available to you. This year the city is opening more public ice skating rinks and winter activities such as cross-country and down hill skiing are readily available.
Make plans now to get tickets and check out Stowe, Vermont’s Winter Rendez-Vous, January 21-25. If skiing isn’t your thing, head up for the weekend and skip the slopes. You can still partake in all the apres-ski activities such as hot tubbing and cocktailing.
