When I moved from Reunion, we decided to pinch some pennies and fly into Boston instead of Duluth and then just drive the rest of the way. What a DISASTER! When we landed at Logan it took us years to find a cab. Then, we the cab driver said the best place to rent a car was in Brighton or Brookline, one of those places out of the way that starts with a B. The cab ride was really expensive! The rental car place was on some avenue where university had just gone into session so that crowds were crazy! It took hours to make it to the highway!
Once on the road, it took us only about 3 days to get to Duluth, but, was Boston the wrong place to land! Especially for someone not from the United States!
Though, my cab driver (on the really long cab ride) told us that it was mandatory to root for the Red Socks! The cab driver said something like "What is up, Wilt?" when he saw my wife. It wasn't until later that I found out he was making fun out of my wife do to her height (she is 6'8") but he asked what her profession was. When my wife said that she was a basketball players the cab driver told her that the Celtic were the local team and that they were the best basketball team ever!!
Hope that helps!!
