Train Ride Home


Taking the train sounds glamorous but in reality - it is not. Getting to the train station is fun, there is a lot of hustle and bustle, the unique noises to a train station, the conductors. And then the ride begins. It starts of with excitement, looking at the scenery passing by, seeing sights hidden from a normal car ride, and not having to drive yourself. 

But then, it gets dark, and you can't see out your window anymore. And the train will stop at random times to let others pass. Then you look at your watch and realize you have two hours to go but if you would have driven by car, you could have been home 20 minutes ago. And then you're tired of sitting down and really want to get out of this moving box but home is just so far away. 

Point: don't take the train for somewhere more than an hour away.
