May Day Nightmare Commute to Eastside :)

WP_20130501_002

Labor day event blocked all street’s traffic in Seattle.

Interesting way to get home

– 210 from Lenora and 4th detoured to Belltown

– Walked out of bus after getting stuck & no move for 40 min

– Walked 15 min along 3rd Ave to Westlake Tunnel: saw endless wait of buses on 3rd Ave.

– Took 216 and got off at Rainier Freeway Station (I do want to punch the person who made the idea of removing Eastgate Freeway Flyway for eastbound buses… ) waited 10 min for any bus to come

– Took 550 and got off at South Bellevue Park & Ride & waited 10 min

– Took 241 and arrived home

Normal 40min busing commute became 100min commute from combination of 4 Bus transfer +15min walk

I love commuting to Seattle!!!!!!!! -great lesson learned – go home early on May Day or go directly to Tunnel.
