Christmas in New York or Boston

[CurrerBell1979]

Hi

if you had the chance to spend Christmas in USA, would you choose New York or Boston?

anyone have any experience of maybe both cities :)
is Boston as "christmassy" as New York

I've never been to Boston but I'd bet every buck I had on that . Been to NY for Christmas and was seriously underwhelmed.Only the Italian quarter felt anywhere near Christmassy . I have a feeling I'll be shouted down here . There were Christmas "sights" in NY like the skating and tree etc ..but in the rest of streets it was barely evident. Try Boston and report back !!

ahh ok :( thanks Anda

might try Boston then!

Boston is beautiful at Christmas. All lit up. Faneuil hall area is magical. There's all kinds of "holiday" shows available. I live just outside Boston and love going in at Christmas time. Lots to do I'd you want. They usually do the ice sculptures after Christmas but before New year's Eve and they are awesome. Boston first night is good too. Very safe. Do Boston
