Where do you watch the July 4th fireworks over Boston Harbor? From the Harvard Bridge? From a roof deck downtown? Let us in on the secret -- or keep it close to the vest, we understand.

I'd like to watch the fireworks from a kayak on the Charles - anyone know if there are restrictions?

bobr - lots of people go in kayaks and canoes.  Go early to the harvard boat house and you should have lots of company. Shouldn't be a problem if you want to leave from somewhere else, they just only let you go up to a certain point. Have fun.

Does anyone know how the viewing is from Magazine Beach park in Cambridge? Is there usually a crowd?

There is no vantage from Magazine Beach. Trees obscure the view.

How is the view in Roxbury -- I'm bringing my 6 and 8 year old kids from Dorchester, and if I don't have to get close to the river, all the better.  thanks!
