sea from the train


To San Diego, to join up with Alice who's at the Western History Association conference - today's our Anniversary, so we were celebrating and went out to dinner.  Coming by train was a huge treat - the last time I took the train between these two cities was in 1994.  Then, I'd flown from London on Air New Zealand, to come to the MLA.  It was cheap (relatively) - but the only movie option both ways was Forrest Gump - and a long film about New Zealand sheep.   After landing at LAX, I took a small prop plane to San Diego in very bumpy late December air - with the result that I vowed never, ever to fly between the two cities again, and indeed took the train back.  I don't remember it being anything like as beautiful as it was today.  I also, obviously, had no idea that some 23 years later I'd be riding the route in order to meet up with my beloved wife, a car, and a whole pile of admin, generated by a job some 120 miles further north.
