Amtrak Adventures, Day 2:

Okay, unless you're willing to spend extra money each time you're traveling, never fucking take a sleeper car.  Because you will never want to go back.  It's infinitely more comfortable than being in coach.  For one, I can fucking change clothing.  For two, I'm not sharing the bathroom with sixty people and they keep that shit clean.

Meals are included as part of the sleeper car package, so if you take advantage of it and eat three meals a day, I think at least a third of the ticket pays itself.

Rocky Mountains = gorgeous.
