Harlem River Non-Drive
Stuck en route to a turkey dinner
To save some time, I drove past the Throgs Neck and
Whitestone Bridges in favor of the Triboro Bridge. Well, it still took me two
hours to get to the George Washington Bridge. Mom and I spent a lot of time
stuck in traffic alongside the Harlem River, on the Bronx
side.
Being a genius, I managed to get
myself onto the New Jersey Turnpike going south instead of west on I-80. For a
while, 80 and 95 are the same road. I missed a fork in the road and was suddenly
quite literally at the Meadowlands.
Here's a tip... if this happens to you,
take the exit for the Vince Lombardi rest stop, because if you don't, you will
go miles out of your way and pay two tolls to go back.
