Bukkit Tour Day 6: Boston to New York Travel Day




This entry wil be short going to be short because it was a rather uneventful day. We got up in the morning and I had to go to the front desk at the Colonnade to petition for a late checkout. Fortunately I was able to get that extended until 1:00. We packed up the room and headed out to grab lunch at McGreevy's. The bar was fantastic with lots of old Red Sox memoribilia on the walls and the food was good too.

After we wrapped up lunch we made our way back to the hotel with 15 minutes to spare. We got the car packed up and then had our wallet raped by the parking garage. Back out onto the street we went, but the GPS locked up and we were unable to get a signal. I didn't have printed maps so we wandered about the city until it was working again. Driving in Boston is a little nerve wracking. Once we got on the highway things were much better but traffic into New York city on Yankees game day sucks! The drive took about two hours longer than it should have. Fortunately for me Laela piloted our vessle to our destination like a champ. Anyone who knows me knows that I don't like to be the navigator, I prefer to be the pilot.

We made our way to Dr. Fischetti's casa and got situated. It was a nice relaxing evening hanging out with Anthony, Lauren, and Chris. We went and had dinner at Old Town Bar at around 9:30. Everyone but Miranda had a burger and they were delicious. We were pretty tired out after our day of travel so we went back to Anthony's and got some shut eye. We've got a pretty big day planned today so look for a huge post tomorrow.
