I have found people either love or hate trains.... I love them... I love all forms of public transportation when possible... Unfortunately, I live where daily train and use of public transportation is not always possible... But... Love Trains...
When you take a train, you have a seat with a view, you can get up and move around, read and or meet new people...
There are some beautiful train routes around the world.. When we were in Greece we took the train from Athens to Meteora... We were the only non Greeks on the train and it was great..
To get practice, take a train from your local town to the next county or tourist spot... For us we can take the train to San Diego for a day trip, or to Santa Barbara or Los Angeles for an overnight get away...
Our vacation starts the minute we get on the train... The views along the coast are beautiful as well...
This year we are looking at taking one or two mini train vacations.. For us a Stay-Vacation is anywhere in the Continental USA...
My travel challenge for this week! Take a train.. even if it is only a few miles away... There are commuter trains and Amtrak... See your neighborhood and just beyond from a different perspective...
I will be posting some short trips to do via train and some longer ones over this year....
All Aborad!
