Home Again, Home Again

After a very frantic night and early morning of packing on the 3rd/4th (yay for two hours of sleep) I'm home at last! The train trip was just *amazing*, and if I scan the pictures I'll do my best to post them. My dad and I are chatting about doing a very long train trip from California to Seattle, then to Chicago, and back, through Denver, to California. After this trip, if I have the chance to take a train anywhere, I certainly will. It's the way to go!

So today is unpacking and vegetating - yay. :) Tomorrow I may head to the mall to get my sister a graduation gift - I'm thinking a big gift card or cash would be good. Something practical, you know.

I would love to take a train trip like that, but I don't even know where to start looking up information. Hints?

Glad you arrived safely, and I hope you enjoy your time with your family. :)

We just asked the agent at the train station while we were waiting - evidently, if you don't mind going coach, they have a deal for 450-some dollars where you can do around three trains with two layovers. It's called the All Around America fare, I think. Hope that bit of vagueness was helpful - if I find out more I'll let you know!
