Trains

[sartorias]

I love long train rides with a desperate love, but I haven't been on one since 2004, so I've been feeling deprived. So I ride trains on the Net.

Thanks to 365postcards there is this realtime snip of the countryside between St. Petersburg and Moscow. Watching that, I get as mesmerized as I do on trainrides, with my face pressed to the window

Whoa, fascinating. I never would have thought to look for clips of train journeys on my own. *starts up the Estonian one again. zip zip!*

I can watch these over and over.

Trains are nice. (I spent four hours on one today--my first time--and though I had a book I could have read, I spent the entire time looking out the window.)

I basically only read at night, or if the scenery is totally flat.
