Might have the chance of a trip to Boston in a couple of weeks to meet up with some friends for a few days.

4/5 days there to get me past 4th July and then another week after. Where to go after this ? Cruise around Maine/New England or go further a field Niagra Falls way ?

I went to Boston last October and it was really good smile I was there during the autumn colours though, and you will miss that!

Try to catch a RedSox game though!

Cape Cod is worth a visit, Provincetown interesting .

The suggestions on the other thread are all good.

Niagara Falls is more or less a full day's drive each way (450 miles or so), both falls are nice, although the city itself is a bit tacky and touristy.

A couple of years ago we toured around Maine & New Hampshire using B&Bs and were very pleasantly surprised at the standard of the accommodation. I don't have a link but I'm sure Google will turn up something for you.
Boston is where our head office is, and the hotel prices just keep climbing.
