We did all the time in NYC since we had no car. Loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-457848 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 06:54:51 +0000 Andrea 457848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, when I go into NYC and when I am there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-457828 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 06:34:59 +0000 Ree723 457828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I love taking public transport! Fortunately, in Brisbane we have a pretty good system - including the Citycats, which are catamarans that travel along the winding Brisbane River, stopping at various suburbs (neighbourhoods) on its way into the city (downtown). Travelling to work with the sun on your face and the wind in your hair whilst taking in the scenery of beautiful Brisbane is a pretty good way to start your day!</p> <p>I also loved taking public transport when I was living in London - life is so much simpler when you don't have to worry about a car! Perfect opportunity to read, nap, or get some work done without the stress of traffic or road conditions! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-457812 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 06:14:48 +0000 Sweet T 457812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never taken public transportation. It's a really popular form of transportation here but this is the first place I've lived where that is the case. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-457809 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 06:10:24 +0000 Trailmix 457809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, yes. I hate the subway though, I usually walk if possible! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-457682 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 00:35:28 +0000 Freckles 457682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, but only to work. Our city isn't really very pedestrian-friendly. I hate urban sprawl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-457464 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 22:16:00 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 457464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not since LO was born, but we only have buses here and they are super unsafe so I can't go with LO and I never have any reason to go by myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-457456 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 22:13:30 +0000 T-Mom 457456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I live in a car centric commuter city so no.. But when I lived on the east coast I did and loved it. Now I don't know how I would do it with 2 kids though with strollers and all.. I guess you just learn how to do it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-457348 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:49:55 +0000 Mrs. Bee 457348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we don't own a car so yes! but i only take it 2-3 times a month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-457332 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:47:59 +0000 plantains 457332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I take the subway pretty much every where. Driving in NYC is horrible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-457317 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:46:31 +0000 MrsTiz 457317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have the option to! I would if I could though. I rode in a taxi twice in Vegas if that counts? :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-457285 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 21:42:39 +0000 Alivoo01 457285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup unless I have to go somewhere after work or leave work early. I get to and from work faster if I take public transportation than if I drive (40min vs 1.5-2 hours). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-456779 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:39:01 +0000 mrbee 456779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only ever take the subway or the bus... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-456725 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:26:30 +0000 BKCaribBaby 456725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never owned a car. :) With the exception of grad school, I've only lived long term in places with major public transport systems. I live within blocks to one of the largest subways stations in New York and buses are everywhere, so that's how I get around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-456681 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:13:31 +0000 Weagle 456681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took a bus and metro when I was working. I haven't even been on the metro since August of last year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-456670 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:10:54 +0000 oliviaoblivia 456670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I take transit all the time. I can't handle trying to find parking downtown and we live a stones throw from the subway so it's just easier to hop on a train. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-456668 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:10:49 +0000 ChitownRo 456668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mixed bag... both DH and I can walk to work. Most of the time when socializing, I either take the El or a cab. Occasionally, I use our car for big grocery trips. Other than that, we just drive when we leave town. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-456662 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:09:32 +0000 sslm 456662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and UGH. I take the bus to and from work every day, it's about 45 minutes. I hate it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-456659 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:08:52 +0000 Bao 456659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, we don't really live in an area that has public transportation. We just drive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-456651 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:07:02 +0000 MaisyMay 456651@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We take the BART whenever we go into SF, but that's only a few times a year. Other than that, we live in the East Bay and we drive everywhere. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-456629 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:02:33 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 456629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't. If there was a subway system here then I would use it to go downton. But there isn't. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-take-public-transportation#post-452732 Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:00:00 +0000 autumnlove 452732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't and I just drive. I definitely miss taking BART to work when I worked in San Francisco. </p>
