The Way to Travel
I’m in Boston for the weekend. Every time I travel to Boston, DC, or Philly, I face the same dilemma: to ride or not ride the Chinatown bus. Yesterday, I made the decision to ride it. So waiting outside in the rain for 45 minutes for the bus to come, listening to Chinese pop music pouring out of a nearby store, I thought the same thought I usually do when using this mode of transport: I am not doing this again. But then the time comes to travel to an Eastern city and when I look at price comparisons, there’s just not much comparison. And I’m back in Chinatown again.
You do know that Greyhound is actually cheaper than the Chinatown bus, right? Book online with Greyhound for $30 roundtrip to Boston.
Wow, coincidence. I went to Boston for the weekend as well. I took the Greyhound, and it took 7 hours to get there on friday!
Actually, Chinatown bus costs exactly the same, $30 round trip. We thought about taking the Greyhound, but we were coming from downtown anyway, so we went with Chinatown. And it took us nearly 7 hours Friday night, too. Next time I might go for the Limoliner:http://www.limoliner.com/. Much more expensive, but they have wifi and snacks.
