Very much appreciating the patter at the Boston Tea Party Ships and Museum, even down to the food service people. "If you don't like the tea, just dump it in the liquid waste bin--we're all about dumping tea here so no need to feel bad about it."

10 Boston Museums Worth Visiting
Boston is one of the great culture centers of America. This is a place where history and diversity combine with the arts to produce irresistible treats for a tourist, explains Johnny Monsarrat. The Boston metropolitan area has no less than 40 museums to visit. Here are ten musems that simply can't be ignored. Click here for a list of Boston events to make you laugh.
The Museum of Fine Arts is the crown jewel and has been a leading American museum for more than one hundred years. The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, testimony to a remarkable American art collector, has a wide assortment of Renaissance masters in a building designed to look like a Venetian palace. Children sometimes get bored walking through museum corridors. That won't happen at the Boston Children's Museum; it's there just for them. Already known for its academic excellence, notes Johnny Monsarrat, Harvard takes particular pride in the Harvard Art Museums, which celebrate art in many diverse ways.
Museums aren’t just show cases for paintings. Many have science or historical themes. The Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology ranks as one of the major exhibits of culture in the world. The Museum of African American History documents the journey of African Americans through the streets and history of Boston. Anyone who loves the sea will find Battleship Cove or the USS Constitution Museum as places that will never be forgotten. Science and technology are particularly honored at the MIT Museum and contemporary crafts are the focal point of the Fuller Craft Museum.
Boston museums are a wonder to visit and can be a fascinating part of any vacation. Intended to educate and inspire, these are truly pleasures for the eye and treasures for the mind.To stay up-to-date on events in Boston and throughout New England, visit http://bostoneventsinsider.com
Museums on New Year's Day
Most people know that Mondays are the museum's traditionally closed day, although there are plenty that break that rule. Fewer open their doors on major holidays, New Year's Day included. Among those museums closed yesterday was the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, which first opened to visitors on January 1, 1903. In the past, they've opened on New Year's Day-- for free!-- and I had been looking forward to taking part in the tradition this year. Alas.
I wasn't the only one looking for a open museum on New Year's Day. Here's a wonderful post by Judith Dobrzynski highlighting open museums and discussing art access.
As for me, I found another museum that was open...
