There's always something to do in Boston, especially in the spring. I recommend the "Things to Do" section at boston.com:

Buy a cheap seat to Boston Ballet's Swan Lake.

Stroll the Public Gardens, which is peaking with leaves and tulips.

Walk walk walk and explore! Best week to be a tourist!!!

Thanx for the response
We both love Boston and have been a few times, just looking for something different? Duck tour on the Common on Sunday? Perhaps a newish dining or theatre experience etc.??
