I was originally planning on making the 4 hour drive to Toronto all by my lonesome however with the cost of gas and overnight parking in a lot that I can’t even be sure there will be parking, I opted to take a greyhound bus.
The reasons for opting to take the bus?
- $96 Bus Fare for a return trip.
- I don’t have to pay attention to the road and can do other things.
- Don’t have to pay $20-$25 per day to store my car somewhere.
- The bus lets me off 2 minutes from my hotel.
Considering all of the above factors, I went with Greyhound. Free Wi-Fi and power on the bus. Perfect! I can get some browsing done or maybe even some sleep! The only downside is the additional hour it will take to get to Toronto but hey! No problem at all. I should be arriving in Toronto around 4:30 PM which should allow enough time for a catnap before heading out to meet everyone and party Friday night!
Sounds like a smart move!
I sure thought so! 😀
I did the same from Cincinnati, Ohio to Detroit, MI to meet up with IW4 and the crew for exactly the same reasons. Round trip was $80, so all in all not bad.
Definitely cheaper than driving and was pretty comfy I must say.
