To fly?

[podling]

Trying to decide what to do for the end of this month. So how 'bout you all help by making decisions for me. I've been very indecisive lately. But I have a feeling I should reserve something soon if I do reserve. So anyway, here's the deal. I live in NJ, my family lives in MA. Generally I drive, but the ride back here afterwards tends to suck. So I'm examining my alternatives. What seems good to y'all?

I'd probably drive or take the train if I were you, but I'm not *G*

Yeah, I'm slightly biased against the train because of prior experience. I'm sure it runs on schedule most of the time... but out of six possible runs I've taken on it, only one, or maybe two have been even close to on time. And once you're trapped on that train, it's all over for you. Sure it's mostly comfortable, but when it's supposed to take 4 1/2 hours and it actually ends up taking 8 1/2 and the snack car ran out of food in the 2nd hour of the trip... well... let's just say it has its downsides as well.

Driving actually isn't that bad, other than wear and tear on the car. Oh, and boredom. Going up won't be that bad, anyway. Coming home is another story. Generally on holidays it takes around 5ish hours to drive back, though the later I leave, the easier it tends to be. It wouldn't be so annoying if I had someone else in the car though.
