watchin the world go by
sitting on the train, from Baltimore to Hartford, and it is a stunningly beautiful day for a train ride. It started out at the ungodly hour of 6:09am -- which hurt a lot after my poor poor decision to stay up til 1:30a last night -- and of course you know I had to get there super early, since I missed the last train I tried to catch. Noticed a few pretty pink-edged clouds through my sleepy haze as I waited at the station, but was too tired to watch more of the sunrise and instead snuggled down into my seat as soon as I got aboard. Snoozed off for a bit until BAM!, brilliant orange sunlight fills my vision and I open my eyes to see the rising sun as we're crossing the harbor. Stunning.
it's been a lot of fun to watch the countryside go by. I was even awake enough to see the NYC skyline as we apprached; I love that skyline.
when I first realized that it'd take me 6 hours to get from here to there, I nearly called it off -- after all, that's about how long it takes me to get home (no layovers or arriving early to get through security), and dang I'm tired of long travels. But as it turns out, the views from a train are way more interesting than from a plane :D so I'm having a good time.
