cheap date: outdoor movie night

here in boston, it seems like winter lasts FOREVER. while other places deal with just as much, if not more, snow/ice/cold as we do, being a walking city forces the majority of us to brave the elements on a daily basis. it's no wonder that as soon as the first signs of spring (i.e. sun or temps above 55) show, bostonians have no issue breaking out the sandals and shorts, and start looking for patios. the way I see it, a nice day spent inside it a day wasted! one of my favorite ways to enjoy beautiful summer nights is with an outdoor movie. I was pretty spoiled growing up; one of the only drive-in movie theaters in the area was around the corner from my house. but the city of boston has stepped up their game the past few years to bring the outdoor movie experience to the city. a great date night option, but also a great (and FREE!) option if you have kids, or with a group of friends.


Movies start at sundown and feature a mix of classics that change every week.
Hang out in Christopher Columbus Park, grab a seat on the grass, and watch great movies projected on the big screen. Great Sunday Funday activity.
For more kid friendly options, try the Hatch Shell. Pack a picnic and relax by the Charles.

what are some of your favorite outdoor summer activities?
