A vast improvement over the Mystic train station, which closes at 2 pm on Sunday. When I lived in…read moreBoston, my friends and I would take the train from Boston to New London every summer Friday, then take the Orient Point ferry. This time, my mother and I were headed to Penn Station. My brother accidentally dropped us off at Mystic. So we missed our first train. I called Amtrak, and they changed our reservation. We took a Lyft to New London, as the Mystic Henny Penny had no seating. We were relieved to find Joe's Java, and enjoyed some coffee as we waited for another train. A perfectly pleasant station, with lovely high ceilings and seating. The indoor temperature was perfect, not too hot or too cold, and the restroom was clean.

Our experiences have always been during off-peak hours, and they've always been positive. There's…read moreplenty of seating, and the station is clean and well maintained. Tickets are easy to purchase, and Metro-North trains run frequently throughout the day, making it a convenient option. Food choices are limited, there is a Dunkin Donuts and a Subway. I do like the Subway here for a quick flatbread to take on the train. I like like the old architecture and this station has some beautiful historical elements. The original station dates back to 1848. That structure was replaced by a new building in 1875, which burned down in 1928. Two years later the current station opened. Parking at the station lot or garage has always been available, only once did we have to use a different garage across the street. Overall, we find it easier, more flexible and a much better value to use the Metro-North out of New Haven Union Station than the Amtrak out of Providence.

This is the local metro north station for New Haven. It is the end of the line where mostly…read moreeveryone gets off. It was my first time so I followed the large crowds. There is an interesting underground path that takes you to the main station. It is a very small station compared to others in New York City or Philly. There was a small gift shop and a Dunkin Donuts which had a large line. Outside there was a crowd of people waiting for an Uber or the local bus to downtown. It cost about $20 each way from the city. It was only my first time in New Haven so I didn't know what to compare it to. It was a cloudy rainy day so everyone seemed miserable. I would have to come back here on a sunny day to see if there is a difference.

When I was planning a trip from Boston to Long Island, I saw on Google Maps there was a ferry…read moreoption that would cut my driving time almost exactly in half. Having lived in NYC for almost a decade, I had no idea the Cross Sound Ferry existed; I thought I'd just put up with the atrocious weekend traffic in and out of Long Island. Pros: (+) The car loading process was very organized. The workers were friendly and efficient. Both my outbound and return trips left very nearly on time, which I appreciated. (+) I lucked out with beautiful weather and calm waters both times. Sitting on the top deck, basking in the sunlight, watching the coastline come into view definitely beat sitting in a bad traffic jam. If I ever go to Long Island, this is the way to travel. (I also get pretty bad seasickness and worried for days over the forecast for nothing; the ships were so smooth, I didn't feel a thing.) (+) Depending on the vessel, you can also get a history lesson. I took the MV Cape Henlopen back, which participated in D-Day. There's a commemorative plaque and everything. (+) Dog friendly! (+) Lots of seats, both indoor and outdoor. Pro tip: bring a beach towel with you so you don't burn your booty. Cons: (-) Not really a con exactly but a warning that they pack the cars in like sardines. I felt bad for the one car that had to park on a steep incline. (-) My round-trip ferry cost about $160, which is ... not exactly cheap. To me, it was worth the time saved and maybe the tolls of coming through the city and LI (though I didn't do the math) but yeah, I can see why the cost might put people off. Tips: 1. Book in advance on the website early. 2. Get to the ferry terminal early. They have a 30-minute rule for larger cars and a 15-minute rule for all other cars, otherwise you're bumped to standby and there might not be a spot. 3. From a navigation perspective, I found getting to/from New London, CT and Orient Point, NY a breeze. There are some very cute farm stands along the road to Orient Point, where you can stop and get fresh strawberries, eggs, lavender, and honey.

There is a cute photo where you put your head on top of a pest dispenser. A Pez themed chopper built by Orange County choppers is on the second floor. We were given a Pezz bingo card when we entered, we needed to locate specific pest dispensers. With a completed bingo card you could spin the wheel and get a dispenser.

It's a small station which only accommodates 2 double decker cars coming out of Ronkonkoma. The station and facilities for that matter are bare to the bone and on your return trip to the city you'll be buying your tickets on board (no machines for purchasing on the platform). If you're coming back west, make sure to get to the train early, during peak season give yourself 20+ minutes and don't be that person who puts their luggage on the seats. Otherwise getting to Greenport and the North Ferry, the LIRR is one of the easiest ways to travel.
