lisa cmy roomette is downstairs this time and the windows were as dirty as I've ever seen them so I got out at San Jose and got paper towels/water and washed them and all of a sudden everybody else on the platform did the same so the whole line of sleepers was people washing windows. #Amtrak #CoastStarlight #Tågskryt #TransitViews
I've never seen anything like this, crossing Elkhorn Slough, looks like steam rising from the water. #Amtrak #CoastStarlight #TransitViews #Tågskryt
California. The words next to the picture of the woman on the cantina say "Love will set us free". #Amtrak #CoastStarlight #Tågskryt #TransitViews #Bienvenidos #LoveWillSetUsFree
The trains are too short these days to get a good capture of the Cuesta Pass horseshoe curve, but got a little bit of it. #Amtrak #CoastStarlight #TransitViews #tågskryt
I saw two weddings from the train; one on the lawn at the super fancy Rosewood Miramar and this lovely small wedding on the beach. #Amtrak #CoastStarlight #TransitViews #tågskryt
trying to figure out what this bird has in it mouth, I think seaweed? #Amtrak #CoastStarlight #TransitViews #tågskryt
The ocean makes me happy. 🌊
no stoppage after the first half 0-0
ugh painful
OMG what a great night. Sitting at the bar reading (yes I'm that person) when the guy to the right of me start talking to the people to the left of me and it turns out to the guy is an attorney who is also a magician affiliated with the Magic Castle. The people on the left leave and I spend ~90 min having him do card tricks for me, etc. (and gave me his card so I can go visit the Magic Castle which I haven't done in 35 years). He had ropes of beads and made me this Jeff Koons dog out of one.
First time outside the entire day. Fresh air is good. Very happy that it's still light at 7:30PM. #EverythingIsBetterWithTacos
There's some event outside near where I am and I can hear their music. They just played "Africa" by Toto, and I thought @darth would like this, and smiled and my friend asked me what's up and I decided against telling the story about my friend the red panda on the Internet.
two private cars connected to our Coast Starlight today. #Amtrak #CoastStarlight #Tågskryt #TransitViews
passing several metro gold line trains, waiting to head out (it really should be called yellow and not gold). 🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞 #Amtrak #CoastStarlight #Tågskryt #TransitViews
Gray day on the central coast 🌫️
this part of the Salinas river north of Bradley always reminds me of summertime. Big flat bank to hang out with your friends, shallow river to splash around it.
Burrito Justice@lmc thank you for these threads, just lovely
djb@burritojustice @lmc I concur. This is awesomeness, lady
@burritojustice @lmc me too ❤️👏🏽❤️
@djbtv @burritojustice thank you! It's all California being California plus Steve Jobs inventing the iPhone so I could sit in a chair for 12 hours and take pictures.
@lmc @burritojustice I legit want a coffee table book of your trip
@djbtv @burritojustice how about a little toy amtrak train and the headlight projects pictures on the wall.
@lmc @burritojustice I’LL TAKE IT 😆
@burritojustice @djbtv Amtrak could buy all new trains if they would just sell a Train projector we could put our photos on.
