YOUR TIP FOR THE WEEK

If someone says “park the car in Harvard Yard,” don’t try it—it’s illegal, and you’ll definitely get towed... probably by someone named Sully. Welcome to Boston, where the accents are strong and the parking tickets stronger.

HISTORY LESSON

Boston threw the ultimate “No Tea for You” party, which kicked off the entire revolution. While July 4th is when America officially said, “We’re out,” Boston was the one lighting the fuse with early protests and the first shots fired. So, when you celebrate Independence Day, remember Boston was the city that said, “Hold my clam chowder, I got this!”

SIGNING OUT!

That’s a wrap for this week’s edition of Beantown Beacon! Whether you're cheering under the lights at Fenway, cruising into the sunset, or dodging parking tickets with grace, Boston’s got something brewing for everyone.

Until next time, stay curious, stay adventurous, and as always, don’t forget to grab a lobster roll (or two). See you around the Harbor!
