Spent the middle of the day at Disney Princesses on Ice at the Banknorth Garden (nee Fleet Center, nee Boston Garden). Though my wife thought Nemo on Ice was the best show we've seen, I'm giving this one the nod. Disney knows how to put on a show, and this was a solid two hour performance with all your favorite Princes and Princesses...dreamy. The cost was reasonable at about $35/seat -- don't give them too much credit for that, though, they Hoover your wallet of 20 dollar bills for an endless parade of souvenirs and over-priced snacks from the second you get there. We were in the first row of the loge, which is actually fourth row overall -- great seats. Best of all, I'd give this one a solid B+ on the "for the dads" scale.

Turn offs: It took a solid hour to get out of the parking garage. I kid you not.
