One little class left this evening between me and spring break. It's hard to believe it's already spring break and I know life will zip by after we are back at the end of March. What am I doing? This Spring Break I'm taking the train to San Francisco, then biking and camping my way down to Los Angeles. I've been wanting to do this for years!
So, tomorrow I pull out of the Denver Amtrak Union Station on the California Zephyr, heading West to San Francisco. I'm so excited to see the snow covered purple mountains. I'm serious, the mountains here at sunset are purple and beautiful. I have never seen this part of the country and I thought watching it pass by from a train window seemed proper for my modern frontier exploration. It's been a bit of a hustle to get my things packed and together. I still have to actually take apart (some of) the bike and pack it in this massive box. I'm a wee bit nervous now, but I'm sure it'll all work out. I'll learn a lot -- about bike touring, the country in which I live, and, of course, about myself.
An adventure I'm sure to remember!
ooo that sounds so fantastic! sort of looked into a cross-country train trip a couple months ago and it sounded really neat. safe travels and have so much fun!
