False Start
1 Desember 2019, Amerika Serikat ⋅ 🌙 19 °F
The alarm went off at 6 which was mighty early. While Russell was in the shower, I checked the train status to discover it was almost 3 hours late. So we went back to sleep for a couple hours. Checked the status and then back to sleep for another hour.Baca selengkapnya

We stayed in the oldest hotel in Denver, The Oxford Hotel. It was only a half a block from the train station.

We left our hotel at 10:20. The walk to the train station involved some logistics as we were carrying 2 cases of wine, in addition to our luggage. This was actually less wine than we brought out, so that's a net win!Baca selengkapnya

We lost even more time so that we are now 3.5 hours late. But we are on our way!

I've got my train shoes on!

First lunch
1 Desember 2019, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 32 °F
We both got the burger for lunch. It was pretty good but I forgot to take a picture.

After lunch, I discovered that I am missing my credit card. Did I leave it in the bar last night? I'll try calling at the next stop.Baca selengkapnya

Moffat tunnel
1 Desember 2019, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 32 °F
Crossing the continental divide though a 6 mile tunnel. Everyone has to stay in whatever car they are in because they don't want to open exterior doors in the tunnel. I guess the air in the middle gets pretty stagnant with diesel fumes and coal dust.Baca selengkapnya

Russell took advantage of the stop to go outside and wipe down the windows. I took advantage of the cellular connection to lock down my lost credit card. The bar where I probably left it is not open yet so I'll try to call them later.Baca selengkapnya

The rockies in snow
1 Desember 2019, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 25 °F
We spoke to some people on the train who did this route last week in the eastbound direction and there was no snow then. We really lucked out on the big storm that just came through, but the western side of the continental divide is much less snowy.Baca selengkapnya

We have stopped on a siding to let the eastbound California Zephyr train pass us by.

It took 30 minutes of waiting for it to pass.
