chartier: The train is my new favorite way to travel. I’m taking an Amtrak up to WI for a weekend of brewery tours, a steak house, and helping my in-laws set up their new iPhones. Amtrak is great: No security/TSA theater no turbulence roomier seats in coach Heineken and M&Ms working from my iPad thanks to 3G I’ve already paid for and not having to buy expensive WiFi in the sky a quiet ride plenty of interestingness flying by my window I was just talking about this the other day. Traveling by train might be longer but I can do it in a more peaceful way without having to go through security and deal with all that fun. The other good thing about train travel is sometimes it’s just plain cheaper than air.

The train is my new favorite way to travel. I’m taking an Amtrak up to WI for a weekend of brewery tours, a steak house, and helping my in-laws set up their new iPhones.

Amtrak is great:

  • No security/TSA theater
  • no turbulence
  • roomier seats in coach
  • Heineken and M&Ms
  • working from my iPad thanks to 3G I’ve already paid for and not having to buy expensive WiFi in the sky
  • a quiet ride
  • plenty of interestingness flying by my window

I was just talking about this the other day. Traveling by train might be longer but I can do it in a more peaceful way without having to go through security and deal with all that fun. The other good thing about train travel is sometimes it’s just plain cheaper than air.
