In Mandarin, you say 'Sheiy-Sheiy' (xiè xiè) for thank you
I thought this guy is crazy
I didn't see a wire I really thought he has a problem
But he has a wireless earphone
'Sheiy-Sheiy' (xiè xiè)
In Mandarin that is spoken in China, you say 'Sheiy-Sheiy' for thank you
To greet someone it's 'NI Hao' which means Hi
By the way, the job is done
It's strange that New York, such a famous city does not have public toilets in the vicinity
That too at a busy place like this
Where you have buses going in and out from different cities and states
I guess my bus is here
This is EastWestbus.com
Today is 30th May and not everything is going great
I had to go quite far looking for public toilet
Greeting a co-traveler
Checking up with the Bus conductor
At times, it becomes really challenge to follow and understand people
because of (I'm deliberately not referring to it in English ) the dialect and accent of the people
It becomes difficult to follow at times
I had to say that in English anyways
Checking with the bus conductor for the commute time
Folks, it's time to get into the bus
Good news! I've got the front seat
There's also a small washroom at the back in this bus
My previous bus from Philadelphia to New York also had it
It means that the long distance buses here come with a restroom facility in them
Keep guessing what I just said in Hindi
Ladies and gentlemen, you can be seated this bus without having to fasten your seat belts
This isn't a flight though, so this vehicle would commence it's journey towards Boston
And if you are probably having a problem comprehending my choice of words right now
It implies that you've bunked your Hindi language classes and now bear the consequence of it
We've reached our destination- Boston
Thank you
Welcome everyone to Boston
Boston is a 400-year old city and is a prominent city in the context of American independence struggle
For the next two and a half days- today, tomorrow and day after
I am going to explore this city
Let's begin Boston with figuring out how do we commute in Boston
Whenever you get to Boston by Air
You'd need to commute to the city and in and around
Well, Boston is one of those cities of US where the public transport system is well established and very effective
Boston has both subways and city buses
There is a special pass that one buy, which allows one to commute on both subways and buses
Generally a single ride would cost a minimum of $2.25 or $2.75 like in New York
It'd be very expensive if one has to spend $2.5 for every ride
If you are going to travel extensively then it's better you go for the Charlie Ticket
If you have watched my old episodes when I landed here the last time I got a Charlie Ticket done
This time I'll try getting a Charlie Card
Charlie Card is a plastic card that is free
Just like in Washington and in New York it costs a dollar to get it done
It's a simple card they'd charge a dollar to get this done
It is done for free here and then you can top it up as per your need
You have two options to top up the card- 1Day pass for $12 and 7Day pass would be $22
I am going to be here for 2.5 days and my host stays in ahead of Quincy... infact Weymouth which is quite far from here
For which I need to change a few subways and buses and so it'll be 5 to 6 rides on a daily basis
Some people suggested that getting a Charlie Card not easy since it is usually do not offered on short stays
So you need to tell them that you are here for a long time that's why you need a Charlie Card
The public transport system is called MBTA which is the local transport authority here
I checked their website to check the nearest location for me get a Charlie Card
The nearest location is East West Bank on Bedford Street which is 0.2 miles away from here
I got the card and now I need to proceed to New England Aquarium
I am planning to do a specific trip from there
Just like the way I booked the BigBus Trip in New York on Klook
The same way I booked a Go Boston Card on Klook for which I didn't have to go anywhere but booked it online.
With GoBoston Card I don't have to buy another ticket every time I visit a place of attraction
The best part is, it's a lot cheaper than the other way
Most of cities have such GoCity cards or something in the same lines of it.
I wanted to introduce this concept to you so that if you traveling to any city it's better to opt for this
And apart from this, you'd also get few premium attractions for free
I bought a 3-day GoBoston Card which got me a one free premium visit.
There are some premium attractions out of which I can visit one of them for free which otherwise is very expensive.
This card costed me about $120
I am running late and I need to rush
but since we are talking about public transport I wanted to share few basics of it
There are 4 lines of Metro- Blue, Orange, Green and Red
There is no metro at the airport as such but you have free buses running called SL-1
I took SL-1 bus to reach the downtown (South Station) from the Airport
This is the map from Airport to South Station
Once you South Station, you can get any public transport to go anywhere
This is Boston Duck Tours
Though all the seats are booked for the next available trip
This trip will cost you 42 $
These are the rates for children
Whereas Go Boston card costs 110 $ with a lot a activities
So getting a Go Boston card is cheaper if you are doing a lot of activities
They offer their trips from 3 different locations
So I am going to the Science museum from where I am going to get an early trip
There the next trip starts at 3:!5 pm. Its already 2:!5 pm now
These are Segway guided tours. Another way to explore Boston
This is Blue Line T
Where are all these children going!!
This boat seems to be booked only for children
it was a 90 minutes trip
I am at '7 Eleven' store
I was hungry to I bought this
Bean and Cheese Burrito
costs 1.99 $
I got a reward points card when I visited a CVS store
Yesterday they sent me an email mentioning about discounts and offers
So if you are travelling/stay in USA, its better to get such cards to get discounts or rewards
I am not getting my CVS card. I wanted to show you
So this is the CVS card
Likewise, I just got a card from 7 Eleven
After getting this you will get 800 points
through which you can get some things for free
after keeping it in the microwave oven for 45 seconds, now my Burrito is ready
You can also get free chilly and cheese, different sause
After getting this card you have to register your US mobile number on their app or website
After registering I got 800 points
I can get these things for free
I am going to get the coffee now
This was 7 Eleven store
it took 20 seconds to reach the 50th floor!
Now I am going to show them my Go Boston card voucher
to get the entry
otherwise you have to pay 20$ to enter this skywalk observatory
The best time to visit this place is - Evening
I am on the 50th floor of Prudential towers...
This is a guide
have to dial 102 to know more about the place in front of me
That is Trinity Church
In USA, there are over 1.8 million Indians
In Massachusetts, there are 50,000 people of Indian origin
You can do a lot of activities in this observatory.
You can even watch these films
Another day has begun
I am at Richard's place
He is...
He is gone...
He is Amery... from Turkey
This is how this place is!
People from different parts of the world live here
Like USA, the land of immigrants
People from all over the world stay here
live together harmoniously
For me, Richard's house is Mini-USA
