We'll be there mid-July. So, should be warm enough for this desert-dweller. :-)

I do like a good New England clam chowder (never liked the tomato-based one...Manhattan?). Had a great one in Monterey, served in a sourdough bowl.

Should I buy a mass transit pass ahead of time? Or just pay as we go? In San Diego, they charge a maximum of $6 per day, so we bought a card ($2...and I have it stashed in our transit card wallet in the event of a return to San Diego**), and put $6 on the card (we were there for one day). Recharge it any time we like.



**We also have Oyster cards (London), the NY metro card, and I think the Japanese card, the Vancouver transit bracelet, and probably one or two more I can't think of at the moment.
