Yes leaving on the 5th. I got some great video of the plane landing, and tubing behind the boat. But the hotel internet is SOOOOOO slow.  >:( And yet I still have to pay $40 for this **** internet.

Although I did buy a super cool fingerprint reader from the Spy Museum, no more passwords. :D

Well the New Jersey and D.C. like were rough, the rest was smooth. We were upgraded to buisness class so we got power outlets and confy seats. Even though the power for the lights and everything went out like every 10 minutes. Not sure what, we weren't even switching to another track or anything... But it was cool, first time on a train. :)

Nothing beats the Amtrak 165mph Acela from Boston to Washington,

Four outlets under the table that every seat has.

That is my seat I had a while ago

It also has a bar, snacks, coffee lounge, sit down dinner, tilting cars, noise canceling interiors. ;D

The acella only gets there an hour early (we actually got there before it because it was delayed) but costs a couple extra hundred bucks. But I would rather be seen on that sleek train then our ugly thing.

Personally I don't think the commuter train is ugly but, I'd also rather get there with the ultimate comfort than the crammed commuter cars. ;D
