I am going on an Amtrak trip tonight! 22 hours to Seattle, in a tiny sleeper car with a friend; hopefully we will still be friends after this trip!

Phil in SF (kingrat@sfba.social)'s status on Saturday, 10-Aug-2024 07:30:07 JST Phil in SF @Bronwyn Only drawback of a roomette is that you can't stretch out with two people. A lot of time on the observation car is an antidote. I bet you'll still be friends afterward, unless the time together causes you to blurt out unpleasant truths.

Any other tips?
