    Pack For Weather: Packing List
  • Tip Rating:
  • Boston is supposed to be absolutely freezing in winter. I brought heavy wool coats, hats, gloves -- you get the picture. Well, the first week of December 2001 they had record-breaking heat -- around 75 F during sunny days. People were walking around in t-shirts and shorts, and sitting in outside cafes. On our last evening, December 13, at 11 pm, it started snowing. I was thrilled, and wanted to get up to walk around the block while it was still snowing. I couldn't convince Robert that was a good idea, because we had to leave at 5 am for the airport. All I got were a few photos out of the hotel window. The next day it was already turning to rain, and the coming week was supposed to be very warm again. So, the only thing that is a sure thing is to bring good walking shoes. Also, it is an East Coast big city, so bring dressy clothes if you're into nice restaurants, opera, theater, etc.

    A tripod would be a good idea to capture all the lights at night, especially during the holidays. I didn't bother with one, and you can see how blurry some of my night shots are. But I was having so much fun, I didn't care. Blurry = artsy -- correct?

  • You don't have to bring many things. Just taking a bagpacking travel is ok~~

    A pair of shoes that is nice to walk is ok. Only June and July is hot.

    Be sure to bring your camara and films. Or you will miss many beautiful things.

  • I have learned 1 thing on my recents travels don't over pack. If you can survive on 1 suitcase such as a 19' carry on roller bag. That's all I would pack.

    For those on Day trips - wear comfortable shoes. For those staying a bit longer- I spent 5 weeks there and was cold every day-bring a sweater or light jacket

    Bring a bathing suit if you want to sun yourself on the QEII's sun deck. Suits are definitely out!

    Pack For Weather: Prepare for the unexpected
    bring a jacket or sweater even if it is summer because the breeze from the water really cools things down.

    Pack For Weather: BE PREPARED
    no matter the time of year, you should pack for all kinds of weather. The weather changes daily and varies greatly. Don't trust the local weatherman.
