Cambridge (Mass, not the college)

Hey gang,

I am taking my dad to see the Sox and the O's tomorrow and was thinking of stopping in Cambridge on the way up. Couple of questions:

1. Is there somewhere to park and take the train? We usually park at the Pru Center.

2. Is it worth it? I was thinking of walking around, taking a look at Harvard, getting a cocktail and checking out the street performers. Anything else?

Thanks in advance.

 

Alwife Station is the first stop on the Red Line in Cambridge. They have lots of parking there.
