Well the pomp and the circumstance of graduation is now over and my Husband and I packed up our things and drove over to Syracuse. We hopped on an AMTRAK train, for our journey back home.
The first leg of the trip will be an overnighter on the Lakeshore Limited to Chicago. We have done this trip before. To save a bit of money, since it is just from 10PM at night to the early morning, we booked a coach seat. When we get to Chicago, we will be transferring to the California Zephyr, where we booked a Roomette. Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Utah, Northern Nevada and of course, Northern California (including the infamous Donner Pass) will be on the agenda. We leave the train in Sacramento and transfer to the San Joaquin. It will travel through central California and drop us off at Bakersfield, where a bus will take us the remaining way to our home, Santa Clarita.
It should be a pretty cool trip and the last main line across the West, that I have never been on. In a major big event for me, I will add Nebraska to my list of States I have visited!!! Woot!
To check out where I am on that list, read THIS one and then go back (via a link) to my original post about States.
See you on the flip side.
My Sister is going home, I know it was a great visit for me. I am so glad you visited.
