여행 팁
교통편
The Blue line train is the most economical way to get around
The Blue line train is only a 10 minute walk from the house. It is best to travel by train to save yourself the expense of parking fees downtown. Use caution and watch your purse and belongings.
교통편
I have 2 bikes that you can borrow with locks
I have 2 bikes if you want to ride around town, just ask and I can bring them into the yard for you to use. I have locks and keys so easy to lock up when tooling around town.
