    If your bf just asked for a hummer And both he and your town…read moreare a bummer Dump him and leave town And then quickly head down To the Ville that is named after Somer If the winter doesn't please you here (I hate it), the Somerville. One of the greatest places in Massachusetts and really it's just a suburb of Boston but a very amazing one. Not a very high income neighborhood - somewhere in the middle or lower middle and absolutely packed full of great Latin Eateries, especially Brazilian. The Brazilian capital of Boston probably. A whole bunch of different Brazilian places to eat including the two Pastelarias that are amazing - Somerville and Vitoria Pasteleria - and then Oasis Bakery and Oasis Cafe just inside Medford are two of the greatest eating establishments in the whole country. One of them makes great acai bowls and perfect Caldo de Cana and incredible Sucos straight from Brazil, whereas the other right next door has some of the best Brazilian buffet food you'll ever try including most of the stuff in Brazil. The wet stews are absolutely Second To None just make sure that you order all you can eat without the meat because it's a lot cheaper than trying to get that stuff by the pound or the buffet including the average BBQ meat. Links: Try the Pastel Vitoria here https://www.yelp.com/biz/pastelaria-vitoria-broadway-somerville And the Cream Of Wheat here https://www.yelp.com/biz/the-neighborhood-restaurant-and-bakery-somerville-2 And go to Oasis for sure, right next door. Oasis Steakhouse https://www.yelp.com/biz/oasis-brazilian-steakhouse-medford Oasis Bakery https://www.yelp.com/biz/oasis-cafe-and-bakery-medford Owned by Jimmy Somerville of Bronski Beat and the Communards.

The Prospect Hill Monument is a stone structure in the shape of a mini Castle & is located in Somerville, Massachusetts just outside of Boston. This is a residential area with homes. It is also a historic site & provides panoramic views of Boston & surrounding cities. There is also a small park in this neighborhood here with green grass, park benches & a good spot for picnicking & relaxing. It's great place to visit Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall with a changing natural New England landscape. BE CAREFUL WHERE YOU PARK OTHERWISE YOU MAY GET A TICKET. Park only at the signs where it says it's OK to Park; it's a residential area. You can also visit here by Mass Transit too. This site is only a few blocks away & up the hill from the bustling heart of Union Square. There are a lot of local businesses & eateries there. The medieval fortress tower was constructed out of stone & steel. It was built in 1903 to commemorate the site's military importance during the Revolutionary & Civil Wars. The Tower stands 4 stories tall. Climb the stairs to the the first outdoor open deck, & you'll see great views of Boston, Somerville, & Cambridge. The inside of the tower & top were open pre-pandemic periodically at various times. Check the website for current info & updates. Be sure to go all around the tower on the ground level. There are plaques with lots of detailed info all around the tower. Also check out all the signs throughout the Park telling you even more info about this spot & how it was instrumental in uniting the colonies. On January 1, 1776, General George Washington himself who would later become the first President of the United States, during the Revolutionary War hoisted the very first national flag of America on this very spot. It was called the Grand Union Flag & predates The Famous Betsy Ross Flag. Our current red & white Stripes with 50 Stars flag is not flown here. Lots of people miss this. Zoom in with your camera & you will see the First Flag of America. The Grand Union Flag is still flown here on top of the tower. It has red & white stripes but with the blue British Union Jack in the corner instead of the Stars. It's Pretty Cool that they still fly our very first national flag here. To make it worth your trip be sure to visit the extremely popular Union Square Donuts which has Great Donuts & is only a few blocks away. It used to be, you had to have Mega Bucks & be really Rich to have the Good Life, not anymore. The Game has changed. You've been Upgraded. Now You Can Live Like a King on a Limited Budget!

    At first it seems like a celebration of local quirk and kitsch, this 45 minute trolley tour of the…read moreside streets and neighborhoods of Somerville, showcasing the various incandescent manifestations of overzealous holiday enthusiasm. But there's also something a bit more ominous at work here. It's like the Cold War never ended, just became condensed, localized, and about trying to out-gaudy your neighbor, rather than blow them off the map. Or maybe it is about blowing stuff up - fuses, switch boxes, the power of an entire city. Turning down certain streets, you realize that a sort of Hatfields and McCoys type turf battle is being waged, with Christmas lights as the bullets. Houses directly across from one another, annually upping the ante, trying to blot out each other even as they blot out the night sky with the wattage of a billions suns enveloping their homes. In fact, are there even homes there, underneath the blinding riot of colored lights, plastic Santas, blowup Frosty's and life sized Nativities? I don't know. There are certain houses which bear more resemblance to the mothership at the end of Close Encounters of the Third Kind, than anything built by man. You owe it to yourself to do this once, at least. The tour guides will rattle you off mini-bios of the main players, as well as the staggering amounts of their utility bills. There must be better ways you can spend a 1000 bucks in a month. Thereafter, just use the map they give you to do your own tour at a more leisurely pace, so you can truly gape in awe that these man made wonders of the world deserve. N.b. Not to be confused with the Illuminati Tour, which departs from an undisclosed location, goes God knows where, and leaves you a babbling paranoid idiot at its conclusion

The trolley tries to make tight turns, the tour guides are making jokes, and everyone's just excited to be there. I love the carpenter's house who adds one decoration to his set-up a year. And the guy who dresses up as santa to wave out the door to the trolley....I'd been living in for Somerville for 2 years before I took this tour and this tour really brought Somerville to life for me. To hear the neighborly stories and tidbits....and go down some of the streets I'd never drive down myself. Even if you can't make it one year, at least pick up the self-tour map so you can go check-out the cool houses yourself until the following year! When we couldn't make it one year, we picked up the map every year and will check out a couple every weekend.
