Dawn – September 12-26 – Boston-Quebec-Boston
Precruise: Hilton Boston Downtown/Fanueil Hall. Excellent location within 3 blocks of Quincy Marketplace and the waterfront area. Avoid the hotel restaurant. Exit the rear doors of the hotel, turn right, and there are two cafes in the next block that serve breakfast. For drugstores, exit the rear doors of the hotel; cross the street and at the end the next corner (Milk Street) turn right and walk up two short blocks to a small CVS or keep going and you will get to a much larger CVS and Walgreens. Walgreens has a smoothie and juicing bar. For lunches or dinners, go out the front hotel doors, turn left and between that street and when turning right on Milk Street you will find LOTS of places to eat all from there to and including the waterfront.
Embarkation: At 11 took a taxi to the port. Walked right in. In fact everything moved so fast I had trouble keeping up. After getting key card, etc., sat for about 15 minutes before our group was called.
Seemed smaller than usual because of what I believe is a larger bathroom, which I liked. Storage not convenient.
