Boston to NYC by MEGABUS

Josh is a great traveler. He plans ahead (which is how we've been able to see the upper levels of Monticello, the basement of Mt. Vernon, and climb to the crown of Lady Liberty), he does his research, and he never complains. Because of Josh, we were able to get to NYC and back from Boston for a total of $20. No joke.

How did we do this? We took a bus. But not a gross bus (I am a very high-maintenance traveler), a double-decker Megabus with an observation window on the top for premium building-gazing. Apparently the sooner you book your ticket, the cheaper the ticket will be, which is how Josh was able to get the tickets for such little money.

I highly recommend it as a way to travel. Even Josh, who has taken countless Greyhound trips, said that it was way better than anything Greyhound has ever had.

Unfortunately, on our way to NYC we had to leave super early. Thankfully, the bus was so empty, we were able to sit in our own rows. I celebrated by sleeping the whole way.
