Boston Harbor Hotel – No Waka’s Staying Here Bro

Stayed 4 nights at the Boston Harbor Hotel. It’s situated about 10 minutes from Boston South Station on the harbour and close to a lot of Boston’s top things to do. Being in this location has one negative thing and that is the road it’s on has some rather bad traffic at times. We probably spent 15 minutes getting to …

New York to Boston Train

Don’t expect any Japanese Bullet Train service or style on the New York to Boston Train. It’s an Amtrak “High Speed” Train called the Acela Express. Don’t expect it to take off and rocket along.

United Airlines Business Class Hong Kong to New York

Flight UA180 is United Airlines Business Class Hong Kong to New York. We had seats 11A, 11B, which are together, and 11D, across the aisle in a 2-2-2 configuration. United Airlines Business Class Hong Kong to New York is less than half the price of Cathay Pacific and as usual, it’s basically a waste of time even trying to get …
