Early trains....

here you see 2 dutch train engines.
and then i wrote an entire story about my experience with trains since i went to secondary school. i was so bored by it that i removed it again.... :)
lets just say i took the train this morning at 6.45 am from groningen. i think i slept a bit during this ride, and i hope i didnt drool. i did catch myself with my mouth open, and wonder whether the lady opposite of me noticed it too; it probably wasnt pretty. i also tried to read, yet most of the times i was just holding the book and had my eyes closed. i dragged my laptop with me; i was certain i would work the 2 hours i was sitting in the train, but i didnt even get the thing out of my bag........
i still need to get used to commuting..... or at least spend this time in a more useful way..... 
i did see a rainbow last week. it was very pretty :) (but im not carrying my camera at the moment, like i used to in boston)

I never had a daily commute like that. It must take some getting used to.

Get that camera back in your purse so we can see what you observe on the train; that should keep you awake!!

I can imagine your embarrassment at waking up in the train. I had the same in our touringcar in Ireland. We had to go up so early at 6! I couldn't keep my eyes open in the bus. I found myself leaning forwards and with my mouth open too, terrible. Hope you get used to the train tours and can enjoy with a book or laptop.

Yeah, I just read a funny blog from a lady on a train mentioning the drooler sleeping across from her...(Ok. Just kidding. Couldn't resist.)
