Go bowling
Lace up those bowling shoes and head to the lanes. Boston and Cambridge have several fun bowling spots that are sure to cure the rainy day blues. Lucky Strike Lanes on Ipswich Street near Fenway Park offers a hip, modern place to get your bowl on, with computerized consoles and TV screens displaying sports games. Or, if it's raining at 4 a.m. and the urge to bowl is irresistible, head to Boston Bowl on Morrissey Boulevard in Dorchester, open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
