[quote=Anonymous]And the "quaint" is ridiculous because those of us with kids in Philly have them sometimes take Megabus or the equivalent and sometimes Amtrak (which is expensive if you don't book ahead). If you leave this to your kid, you are just paying 3X as much and not teaching them good skills. Nothing antiquated about shopping smart. Again, I was really grateful for the reminder. My kid's freshman year in Philly, we didn't know to book until October and, in addition to paying more, the train was not a regular Amtrak train but a converted MARC train that they use for the holidays, which was crazy uncomfortable and had no bathrooms, as I recall. And I'd never book a bus for Thanksgiving after hearing friends spend 7 hours on 95 to get from Capitol Hill to Wilmington. Thanks DCUM friend![/quote]
