So, picture if you will the terrifying scene. I'm mostly drunk in bed sewing and talking with one of my best friends via twitter. She's been asking me to come to Buffalo to visit, but being one of "those people" who haven't owned a car in 6 years I always had the excuse that "Welp how the heck would I get there?" The answer dear sober and non sober readers alike is MEGABUS.
The bus is actually pretty big. Nice cushy seats, outlets for my phone charger, and wifi to connect to. I have to say though the power source made my phone act a little weird as they sometimes can. I got a roundtrip ticket for... wait for it... $9.00 No joke. That was how much it cost this little carless wonder to get to and from Buffalo on a whim to visit her bff.
I'm a nervous wreck about any traveling so I'm always pretty outrageously early. The showed up early as well, but luckily they're really good about waiting until it's time to leave. Check in was quick and painless. There weren't very many people on the bus at all. I fell asleep almost immediately. Which was awesome but also bad. There is one stop between Pittsburgh and Buffalo and thats Erie. The bus driver made no acknowledgement whatsoever that we were anywhere. Luckily it doesn't take a lot to wake me up and it wasn't my stop. It would have been easy to sleep through it.
I got to Buffalo EXACTLY on time too. In all I'd most definitely take the Megabus again. Cheap, quick, and friendly drivers.
