Vervoersmogelijkheden
If we're going downtown we always Lyft or Uber.
Parking downtown is not difficult, but during major events it can be. For us using a car service is cost effective and convenient. It's roughly a $16.00 round trip fare and worth it. No dealing with traffic and we can have a bottle of wine instead of a glass.
