I did a search here but the last commentary about Snapfish was 3 years old.

I am looking to make 2023 calendars for friends - and see they have a special for $7.99 apiece - a prtty good price.

But my efforts to ask customer service via live chat have failed - i select the "I don't see what I'm looking for" option and it pops up the question "would you like to speak to an agent?" to which I reply yes - and then...crickets. (and not the kind the WEF want us to eat).

10+ minutes with no response of any kind. This has happened for a couple of days in a row already - is their customer service department gone altogether? Do they not have one of those "you are very important to us, you are 55th in line with an estimated wait time of 4 hours.." kind of messaging systems?

So I am wondering if anyone here has had problems, or good results, from Snapfish lately. I know I have an account from years ago but have since used other companies -so it's been a while for me.

Thanks for any information or experiences you've had...

Since you'll have just four days, you'll have to limit yourself to one area. I would suggest New England. If you go after the peak of the leaf season, it will be less crowded and less expensive. Look at the links below and make a list of what you would like to see. Then check the distances between them and decide what you can do in a short time.

Boston would have the advantage of packing a whole lot of history and beauty in to a small area, and one in which you do not need to bother with a car! You can get everywhere on the "T" and if not, the city is small enough that cab fare is not generally very much. The major attraction is the Freedom Trail, which takes you by old graveyards with many of our founding fathers, the Old North Church, the Paul Revere House, and takes you to the North End (Italian section - schedule lunch there!). The Freedom Trail starts by the State House, which is across the street from the Boston Commons and the Boston Public Garden. Well worth walking through.

Old Ironsides is an interesting visit. Walking along the Charles River on the Esplanade is great - they often have free concerts at the Hatch Shell, but it may be getting too late in the year for those. Wander around Harvard Square and the beautiful campus. The Harvard Coop for all your books, music and Harvard/MIT logo accessories!

MIT (on Mass Ave by the River - can catch a bus from Harvard Square) - is not a beautiful campus, but they probably still have a hallway dedicated to Doc Edgerton with large blow-ups of his most iconic high-speed photographs. It was upstairs in the main building where his lab was - you may have to ask for directions.

If you like baseball, there is Fenway Park. If you like garden spaces, there is the Arnold Arboretum designed by Edward Law Olmsted (think Central Park, Golden Gate Park, Biltmore Estate, and many others) - the Arboretum is the end of the "Emerald Necklace" he designed, which goes from the Esplanade, through the Fens (where Fenway Park and the Museum of Art is located) to the Arnold Arboretum.

Behind the State House is Beacon Hill - walk among the old homes and brick streets. Then head down Newbury Street for interesting shops and restaurants.

Have fun!

As a visiting Englishman, I was blown away by Williamsburg. 1 day is to short, so get the 3 day pass (which we did). Don't bother with the 7 day pass, 2x 3 day with a decent pause in between much better in my opinion.

We have a lot of History here (so you tell us) but I have NEVER been to something similar done quite as well as this.
Lots of photo opportunity, but mainly architectural, if you ask the tradesmen many will let you take a snap - if you can understand 17c English. The attention to detail is astounding.

But don't think just of the photography. Get involved and move along as you (the audience) are unwittingly coerced into the story of your history by actors who don't so much guide but lead you into the next chapter.

In the unlikely event I make a return visit to the U.S., this place is high on my list of priorities - if not top.
