4. Hope you are on the "T" and not driving. The big dig has left
things in a worse mess than before. You have to be brave to drive into Boston. I don't know how far you have to go but with so much changed, my GPS will not even compute the routes. South Station from anywhere? Don't follow your GPS unless the maps are very current, you'll end up going in circles. Hope you have a great time "In Town".

In case some of you are not aware, "In Town" is a long standing local name for Boston.

6. I used to work in Boston in the late 90's.
We're taking the T from Wonderland Station. I haven't seen the Dig or the waterfront since they finished. Should be mind blowing.

13. Good grief, do you commute from Oxford to Boston?
The thought of that trip would give me nightmares. Long ride, especially in rush hour.

14. I do indeed
I can make my commute easier by coming in early to go to the gym here at work. There's not much traffic at 5:15 am

18. Where is your building?
I was at Tuft's Dental School and China Town. Went to the Common and hung out at the State House then walked up to Macy's.

It's practically impossible to find a public restroom there.
