. . . three miles from work. This isn't going to be good for my bank balance. Lunch at Legal Seafood followed by Apple shopping.

:cool:

puckhead - there are other Apple stores closer to Milton than Burlington (Chestnut Hill and Cambridge).
i know theirs one 10 mins away but i want to go to the opening. how long of a drive is it?

Probably about 30 minutes. The Burlington Mall is near the intersection of 128 and 3 (north of the pike).
Boy the big dig must really have improved traffic in Boston, 'cause I could rarely get from Quincy to Boston proper in 30 minutes when I lived there, much less Burlington. ;)

Yahoo maps guesses 42 minutes, which seems like a more reasonable off-peak time.

30 minutes was a wild guess . . .

If I were making this trip, I'd get on 128 directly, and avoid the central artery altogether.

A friend of mine used to live in Quincy - I have to say, I think Quincy has the worst traffic in the entire Boston area. I hated driving in that town. Then she moved to Weymouth, so I had to drive all the way through Quincy to visit.

That's why I mainly took the T for 5 years. That stretch of the central artery through Dorchester where they installed the zipper lane was always a parking lot.

I don't think 128 around will be that much shorter, off-peak.

knowing apple it will be during thanksgiving weekend and i'll be home in NY or it will open when i'm on break in dec/jan :rolleyes:
