Boston's Black Falcon Pier/Cruiseport Directions (from the south) - UPDATE

[maggiecatenjay]

For the oodles of folks who've downloaded these directions to the Black Falcon Pier in South Boston...

 

The directions were not wrong persé but the second exit cited (#25 South Boston) DOES NOT HAVE A NUMBER ON THE EXIT SIGN in the I-90 extension tunnel !!!! IT JUST SAYS 'SOUTH BOSTON.'

 

My cruisin' buddy and I went in to see the Spirit yesterday (thought we were nuts but saw some other CC-ers did the same so we felt a little better LOL) and we checked the directions on the way... No big deal but a bit of an adrenaline pumper...

 

The Big Dig strikes again. :D

You don't have to go all the way to Southie to see the ship. Just follow Wollaston Beach and turn right at the Dunkin Donuts on Quincy Shore Drive. Just go straight up a little way on East Squantum St. (beyond the entrance to Marina Bay) and sit on the sea wall. You can see the ship from there. (I did:D)

If she turned around on a weekend I would have gone but alas I have to wait until cruise time. :( How about those directions for those of us in swine country eh? Oh, wait... I mean Middlesex county! :eek::rolleyes::D

If you're coming in the Pike (I-90) they're perfect for you... if you're coming in from the north... you're on your own, sorry... Used to know. Don't know no mo. Big Dig strikes again LOL!

WE did it last year to see the dream and are hoping to go in next week to see the spirit! It's hard that is isn't sunday to sunday anymore though!

We will go in next Friday, also. Then the next Friday we get to board. It has been a long wait.

From our boat to their's - we just look across the harbor. :p Granted we just see the stacks over the top of Black Falcon.

Is your boat docked at Marina Bay?? If so, just wait until the Spirit pulls out. Then you get a great look at her.
