Boston Driving

Here are some thoughts about driving in Boston.

The Newton Sheraton is located above the freeway. In addition, the hotel is surrounded by a roundabout. In addition to the usual confusion of a roundabout, there is a point on the inside that is a Mass Pike onramp, and a certain exit that is also an on ramp to the same highway. If you get on the Mass Pike you'll have quite a ways to travel before the first place to turn around presents itself.

Lanes are just a suggestion.

The left lane will likely take you some place you don't want to go.

Mapquest can deceive.

People at gas stations don't give very good directions.

There really is no way to be gracefully 2 1/2 hours late.
