Holiday Travel Planning: Amtrak Routes
Reports are that this Thanksgiving’s and last Christmas’s travel was really pretty easy — folks have figured out how to pack for 2006’s airport rules and not too many tubes of toothpaste get tossed at airport security any more. If you’d rather avoid the whole airport scene at Christmas, though, you can always try the train. Before you decide to ride the US rails as a travel method, make sure Amtrak’s trains go where you want to get with an Amtrak routes map , a trick interactive trip planning atlas online.

I am looking forward to read your next great article… Nice article, thanks.
I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don’t know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.
why do we travel? Or like the song goes “does anybody know what we are looking for”?? Why do we consider travel a basic desire nowadays? I especially like how George Santayana puts it in The Philosophy of Travel: “We need sometimes to escape into open solitudes, into aimlessness, into the moral holiday of running some pure hazard, in order to sharpen the edge of life, to taste hardship, and to be compelled to work desperately for a moment at no matter what.” Do we travel to lose ourselves or to find ourselves? In order to find the WHERE, WHEN or HOW to travel, we need to rediscover the pure pleasure of travels and the meaning of our own inner journey and rediscovery.
