Hilary and daughter Hazel with lovely dog Aggie greeted us at the door and provided us with an immediate tourist tip that the Boston Museum of Fine Arts {MFA} was free this evening and how to get there before we even were unpacked. We enjoyed the MFA very much including a nice birthday dinner for Carol before heading to their home to meet our hosts. It rained most of our second day so we only fit in a walk around nearby Jamaica Pond and a great dinner at the nearby Blue Nile. Hilary also provided us with a coupon left by a previous guest for a Kennedy Tour in historic Boston which we took advantage of too. Their neighborhood of Jamaica Plain has many eclectic amenities that we enjoyed whilst walking around during the evening including J P Licks [a local ice cream & coffee shop]. We would recommend Hilary and her home for any short or long stay in the Boston area with these charming hosts and the convenience of easy access to Boston...
