This is just a little ditty of a tale starting with an early morning train ride from Bako to San Fran to pick up a car.  I had not taken a real train ride before, and I do not know if it was because it was early or just because that is the way it is, but there were not a lot of people on board. 

The gentleman manning the dining car slept most of the way and when I asked him for a Red Bull he said he was out and then reached under the counter and gave me one of his.  Cool.

Walking between the cars, that is pretty freaky though.

The train took us most of the way and then a short but ride dropped us downtown.

 

I was fascinated by some of these shapes....

 

The main thing I wanted to do was have lunch at Moto Java...

 

 

 

Of course they were NOT OPEN....even though they said they would be!

 

Good Mural Though!

 

And, BTW...we could use your contributions to the Road Show Asthma Walk Team.

 Train is the only way to go. Amtrak from here north is usually a pleasant ride. No comparison to Greyhound. Makes me an advocate of high-speed rail; that would be a great alternative to flying. Crowds and schedule delays sometimes presents an ordeal, but hardly the worst one when taking public transit. When factoring the check in time and the wait, flying to, say, Sacramento, is not that much of a time saver over the train.

"Next time you go let me know, I can recommend some good leather stores ;-) and restaurants."

LMAO!  and never mind about the resturants......

But seriously guys I did dig the train.   It was like driving through Californias'  backyard.

 

I would definately be down for another trip.

 

Take care
