Well, it's all about Dee, now isn't it?

Here's how you get to Dee's show on Friday and Saturday if you live in NYC and don't drive. It's very simple. All you do is go to the Port Authority Bus Terminal on 42nd Street. Find the NJ Transit Ticket Counter(it's been a year, so I don't remember exactly where it is. However, if I can find it, so can anyone else!) Big Grin It's the 124/129 line to Secaucus. Dee has the bus schedule & info linked on her website, and I'll post the link below.
It will cost $3.85 for a round trip ticket, which is ridiculously cheap. I think the Lincoln Tunnel costs $7.00 each way if you drive!
Anyway, ask your friendly(or not so friendly Twak )bus driver to let you know when your stop comes up. Most of them are happy do that.
It takes about 20 minutes to get there. The bus goes through Weehawken and then through Secaucus. I always sit on the left side of the bus, and watch for Krauser's Convenience store. When I see that I know it's time to get off. The bus drops you right outside the hotel, so you hardly have to walk at all.
Check the schedule. The bus runs often on Friday and once every half hour(I think) on Saturday, so you shouldn't have any problems getting home.

Honestly, it's easier than driving - and it's cheaper. So, let's move and get your arse There!!!!! Razz

You know what CCFan, you may be right about the one way thing. But, it's still cheaper than driving. $7.30 for a trip to a card show - Priceless.
