Elko, NV to Denver, CO

As I finished our post last night we had just stopped in Elko, NV. We sat up for another hour before deciding to go to bed.

I conquered showering on a moving train last night and Dave today. The toilet and shower in our room is all in one and not really built for a 6ft7 guy and a 5ft10 girl, but we have made it work. The whole room including bathroom is 6ft8 square and 6ft7 high. There is no way Dave would be able to sleep on the top bunk. I got up this morning as we got into Salt Lake City at 3am and when I went to get back into the top bunk I got myself stuck. Didn’t think I wouldn’t be able to get myself out of it and Dave was sound asleep but I eventually did 😂

Dave slept solidly all night and I know this as he didn’t make a sound moving around all night and he was snoring. I slept on and off but had the best sleep from 3.30am to 7.00am.

Today we had breakfast in the dining car but ordered room service for lunch and dinner. Being both introverts we didn’t want to expel too much of our inner energy making small talk today 😂

Today has been another amazing day filled with such beautiful scenery, sitting back and taking it all in from the comfort of our room and the observation car.

We are running about 1.5 to 2 hours over time but that doesn’t worry us at all as we don’t want it to end.

Another amazing day! Tomorrow is our last day arriving into Chicago in the late afternoon. Chicago is predicted to have a 2 to 3 day snow storm the day after we get there. May not be much sight seeing going on but will be an amazing sight to see.もっと詳しく
