Agreed.  (Less expensive also).  Do keep in mind that Logan airport (BOS)
is very close to the city, and the cab fare should be $7-10 (vs $15-20
most elsewhere.)

Also, if you opt for the "T" (public transport), the Blue-line train
(@ Airport station) has a typical wait of 15 minutes *AND* the
platform is outdoors (cold).  However, once you have determined
which platform/stairs are 'Inbound' you can watch for the train
from the heated entrance lobby, upstairs from the platform.

If you want to check on the local weather from remote, you can
direct-dial @ 617-936-???? (any 4 digits) less expensively than the
1-900 # which was posted.
