 I have a bad back that gets aggravated with walking, but I can usually tough it out when I have to.  I'm also comfortable even when driving in NYC and Chicago in the past, but I've heard Boston is a bad place to drive (or at least the downtown is) for people not familiar with it.  So our plan now is to hoof/cab/subway anywhere we need to go.
