Our suggestions:
Start the day with breakfast at Coastal Coffee - it hurts to not say the Ardmore, but Coastal is pretty damn sweet + I really enjoy the few pieces of fruit added to each plate to finish breakfast off with. I also like how the owner/chef brings you your food. Nice touches.

We’ll mimic Joel’s recommendation for used bookstore Last Word around the corner from the Rock Garden on Windsor St. - also our personal fave.

Weather permitting walk downtown, take a ferry ride to Dartmouth, upon your return walk the board walk, continuing at the board walk’s end to Point Pleasant Park and have a picnic or just relax.

For your picnic, either before or after taking the ferry [if it is Saturday] head to the Farmer’s Market downtown as well.

We’ll suggest you end the day by taking a date to a nice dinner at jane’s on the common
Then maybe catch a show at one of the venues noted by Julie, or some live comedy [see a picnicface PSA below], a movie at the Oxford. Plenty to do here. Lots of other places to eat at too. And as you can tell from the suggestions Joi and I like food.

For lots of other suggestions to pass this weekend check out the Coast’s current best of issue [we even get mentioned]
