Boston Vlog Part 2: Chinatown, visiting Fenway Park & Boston in the fall

What a way to spend my last international trip of 2022. Flying business class with United Airlines from London Heathrow to Boston, Massachusetts, for a weekend of exploring the larges, most walkable city in the USA. [ad press trip] This trip was a press trip with United Airlines, Travel Up and the Boston Tourism Board. There was so much to cram in that I've split it across two vlogs – here's Part 1 - enjoy!From those beautiful fall colours at Boston Common and visiting Fenway Park – home of the Red Sox, to tasting the famous lobster rolls and fresh oysters the city is known for. We explored art, culture, heritage and history as we walked the streets of Boston, USA, and even took to the water for a "Duck Tour" around the harbour. If you've ever wanted to visit Boston – I've found the best things to do in Boston and have written a guide to the best 22, including tips on how to travel there and where to stay.Check out my blog post for a full itinerary and where we stayed: https://absolutelylucy.com/22-best-things-to-do-in-boston-usa/Don't forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE if you want to see more videos from me :-)For those who are new to this channel, I'm Lucy, a solo female travel blogger from the UK, who loved adventure travel, music festivals and vanlife.

Flying Business Class for a Weekend in Boston, USA

Would you climb 2,500 steps for this? 👀An 11th-century Muslim fortress with secrets hidden in its walls… and views that make it all worth it. Inside Málaga’s Alcazaba, nothing is quite what it seems.But don’t stop there, continue the climb to Castillo de Gibralfaro. I did… and honestly, I wasn’t prepared for how magical the views would be at the top.The ancient walls are full of secrets, myths and legends that will leave you with chills.I wandered through these narrow corridors where you can literally whisper from one end and be heard at the other (I tested it… obviously 😂)Noticed all the weird, angled doorways too — turns out they were designed to confuse enemies. Imagine trying to invade and just getting completely disoriented 😅Then there’s this “cursed” underground cistern… Some people say it’s cursed, others say it’s sacred… I just know I didn’t stay long 👀The views though?? Unreal. There’s even a viewpoint tied to a legend about a giant snake watching over the city 🐍And somewhere in there is a tower where you’re supposed to make a wish… (yes, I made one 🤫✨)It’s a place where history, legends, and a bit of mystery all blend together – and you can feel it with every step up.Would you do the climb?#malagaspain #gibralfaro #alcazabar #malagacity #màlaga | things to do in Malaga | places to go in Malaga | what to see in Malaga | historic Malaga | alcazabar Malaga | castle of gibralfaro | weekend in Malaga | holiday in Malaga | planning a trip to Malaga | best things to do in Malaga
