Oh, you'll never return,
No, you'll never return,
And your fate will be unlearned
Poor ol warchey
You will ride the subway,
'Neath the streets of Boston
You'll be the Cellarite,
That never returned!

It's possible but that wouldn't be from foul play.

I'd be more worried that they may like her enough not to allow her to leave. Anyone that hates Bush will find immediate friends there.

Conversely, if you actually like Bush...........

If you have any interest whatsoever in history, you will love Boston. There are tons of churches, meeting houses and old places like Fanuel Hall. You may want to brush up on your Revolutionary War history a little before you go, so you can appreciate seeing the places where things like the Tea Party and Boston Massacre took place.

Boston is a town with character, kind of like San Francisco. So many cities in the US are just carbon copies of one another. Boston is not. In the old downtown, it's very difficult to get around by car, because the streets were designed for horses and pedestrians 300 years ago. Don't even try driving downtown. Park outside the city and take the T in.

I can't tell you about hotels, because I always did day trips there or else stayed with family.

Boston also has all the usual modern stuff you will find in most major cities.
