driving in Boston is like driving in a cartoon. There’s construction everywhere, they’re building a street level transit system, renovating the airport, repairing all the overpasses/underpasses, and of course, the big dig, I can’t even tell if we’re on a road. All the taxis have big signs on their roofs that make the taxis look like sharks. When we were coming out of the airport, there was this whole fleet of taxis racing to the arrivals terminal. Lanes are irrelevant, yield signs are irrelevant, but horns are very, very relevant. It was surreal, we’re all speeding and there’s orange barrels blocking lanes and police cars just sitting on the sides, we’re weaving and turning... It was very “Mario Kart”.

side note: we got lost and drove into MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) without knowing it, oh well, there’s one tour highlight.
random thought: if you look like you just walked out of the GAP, you can fit in in just about any major city in North America.
