Next stop on the MBTA


                                                                           This is awesome











 For people who don't read the article, the bus driver asked the passengers if it was okay to stop.
"Who wants to stop at the child-run lemonade stand on the side of the street? His treat.
“I said to them, ‘If any of you are in a hurry or need to make a connection, I’ll keep going,’” Lohan told Boston.com.
Nobody did. The passengers all nodded their approval. And so Lohan pulled over in West Roxbury, hopped out, and treated his riders to a cup of lemonade each.
“I thought it would take 90 seconds, tops,” he said. “Which is about what it was. ... I wait at red lights longer than that.”"

  1. What a great way to start the day with a feel-good story like this. Can you imagine how big those kids' eyes got to see an MBTA BUS pull over for some of their lemonade? That bus driver made their day no doubt. And Kudos to the passengers that went along with doing the stop. I'm so glad they were all on board and there wasn't one sour puss in the bunch to ruin it for everyone.

    I love it! :)
