Train Travel

Last week I am took the train for the first time. 5.12 AM the train was supposed to leave the Station. Reached the Station just 10 minutes before departure - I liked this; no need to leave 2 hours before. Boarded the train. Surprise, Surprise, the train left punctually right on time. I was actually waiting for the announcement on the PA, after moving 100 yards or so, "We are sorry to say, that Weather at XXX Place is holding us up" or something like that. Needless to add, I was on time at the Client office, instead of being several hours behind.

Fear of Flying - who me?

I always used to wonder about those who have "Fear f flying" (should it be termed Flying-challenged?); Thank God, I do not seem to exhibit any.
Well, sitting on the tarmac waiting for the plane to take-off, back to Newark, NJ, I seemed to invariably fall-asleep - usually I will wake up when we are airborne and stewardess will be out serving drink. However, more often than not, I will wake up only to find that we have probably moved 100 yards;
many times, the wait will be for a hour or 2! Cann't get out of the Plane. Captain will announce Weather problem; gusty winds! Yeah right!

home, travel, work, home...

Just got back home. Think I am one of those travel-challenged!
Been travelling to Atlanta, GA for the last few weeks; I do look forward to those 2 days or so when I can stay home and spend sometime with my kids.
At home the routine falls in... Cleaning, groceries, kids activities, going out for a dinner/movie(? where is time) Whew! oh, boy, time to catch my next flight.
