What is the best way to get from Harvard to MIT?

...and vice versa. I need to move between the two places tomorrow evening.

Thanks!

Just yourself? And possibly some luggage? Couldn't you get on the inbound red line of the T at Harvard station and get off at either Central or Kendall/MIT, depending on which end of campus you need to go to? These three stops are one after another, very convenient.

Great answer, Queen Dee :-D !

I was going to mention the story of (I think it was) Izaak Stern, who was asked by someone on the street in NY "How do I get to Carnegie Hall?"; he answered "Practice practice practice".

I have a real question: how do you go to Cambridge Galleria from MIT? Anybody knows the store hour for Cambridge Galleria?

Take the free shuttle bus that stops at Kendall, or walk (it's not far, google maps can help you out).

If you want to go from Harvard to MIT, just remember not to eat the pomegranate.

Hm, if I were just transporting myself, I would just bike there and back. 1.25 is too much for such a short trip. If I had luggage, then I'd be forced to use the T though.

But then again, why would I be taking luggage to Harvard eh?

I have no idea how luggage entered into it. By the way, thanks to the people who gave responses.

I asked the question because I needed to get to H for the HMMT meeting, to put any questions to rest.
