Title: My american adventure is planned.........
Post by: Mookiemoo on March 19, 2010, 17:17:48
Friday 7th May - flying to Los Angeles

7th May taking Amtrak to Kansas - goes through the sierras, flag staff, alberquerque - so should be fun

Flying home 2 weeks later from NYC - again going by train!Always kind of wanted to do coast to coast but never done it (and I wouldnt have the stamina to drive it)

I'll let you know what its like.  Booked a mini room with beds where possible

Enjoy your trip.. I bet seeing America by train will be amazing.. I'm a tiny bit jealous.. It makes my planned Eurostar plus another train trip to Amsterdam in a few weeks seem a little less exciting  ;D

Its only because the internal business class flights have sky rocketed and I cant justify $2000 on a flight!

And its something I've secretly wanted to do so now I have an excuse
