The Train! The Train

We have a great sleeping compartment on the train! Its got bunk beds. The lower bunk is bigger than the upper. Carrie is being kind and giving me the lower bunk. We also have a small bathroom with a shower and a potty.  Its pretty tight but very similar to the one in the RV. The meals on the train are fabulous. Everything is served on white linen, very formal, but you don't have to dress up. Each table seats four and you always end up sitting with other passengers. We have been amazed at how many people on the train are going on the same cruise that we are. It turns out there are a whole lot of folks who don't like to fly! We left New Orleans at lunch time on Monday and arrive in Los Angeles at 8:00 am on Wednesday. Carrie is sleeping better on the train than she does at home. She says that the rocking puts her to sleep. Talk about a gift!
