Fall is in the air...

It is one of the best seasons of the year in terms of climate, availability of activities and people’s mood. The city is all back to classes, some after our summer internships and the lucky ones after long holidays; the extreme heat and humidity of summer have passed away but the energy and happiness have stayed. Everybody knows that winter is approaching, so every chance to enjoy a sunny day or a mild evening will be fully maximized. Fall is not just a great time for town-hopping all around New England’s shores, but also the perfect season for planning hikes, camping and picnics, kayaking, rafting and even horseback riding. For those in love with sea life, fall offers the perfect great timing for Whale watching in Massachusetts Bay, the tour boats are much less crowded and the days refreshing and cooling; stopping by to eat lunch at one of Boston’s Harbor Islands would be a great closing. New England is full of natural parks, the most attractive of which ones are: Green Mountain, Franconia, Blue Mountain Lake, Gifford Woods and Acadia. For true hikers I would recommend climbing Mt. Washington (6,288 ft), Mt. Adams (5,793 ft), and Mt. Katahdin (4,288 ft); for non-true hikers running/walking/biking/kayaking along the Charles’ River with a refreshing breeze in your face cannot feel better. Fall is the best time of the year to go to Fenway Park, it is the beginning of the Hockey season and the Boston Patriots and BC Eagles football teams are playing their most challenging games. Hurry up and buy tickets for New England’s Roller Coaster parks, finish your day with a justly baked apple pie from an Orchard farm where you can pick your own apples. Oh Sorry, I forgot to mention the red color of the leaves!
