California Zephyr
3 months ago
Just took the California Zephyr from Emeryville, CA to Chicago. It was great to look out the window and watch the world go by. I think I’ve finally got the hang of train travel this time.

How I did it
It made me 
How I did it: Bought a ticket and rode the train from Emeryville, CA to Chicago. The Emeryville Station is outside of San Fran so you'll need to either take a bus from San Fran station or stay somewhere near Emeryville and get a taxi. We drove the Pacific Coast Highway from LA and was able to pick up the car in LAX and return the car to Emeryville (it was Hertz). Read how I did it…
It made me
How I did it: My first trip to Stanley Park was almost 15 years ago when I was visiting Vancouver with my parents. I had brought rollerblades with me but didn't bring them to the park so on my first visited, I just walked around on foot, the whole time longing to be skating. Well just yesterday, on a beautiful day in July, I finally got my wish and make a complete tour of the park on rollerblades :) Read how I did it…

Got to see the opening ceremonies and some of the events. Had a fantastic time. It was well worth the plane ticket!
