So either hop aboard a Boat wrapped or lined up along the waterfront and join in the joy.

Traffic significantly increases the stopping time approaches so sometimes the best option is to "park and ride", especially if you're going on a journey that takes more than four hours from home and you are not familiar with the side streets.
