Day 2 has begun.

We have  made it through the first half of the train ride and tonight at 9 PM we will be in LA to switch trains for the rest of the way to San Diego. This is my (Steven) first on a train, along with most of our team, which makes it a pretty unique experience. It is nice as there is lots of room to move about, sit in our seats, walk around, head down the train to the obvservation car where there are tables to sit and play games at.  Also we have been able to get out and stretch our legs at a couple stops and breathe some fresh air for a little bit.

Our teams have been mingling and getting to know each other well, which is blessing! We only have 15 hours left before we reach San Diego!

Things to report:
Coffee on train is not too bad
Leg room is ample, except when your are Pastor Andrew sized
The views are nice for the most part
Dinner was mediocre, but did the job
Breakfast was good
Most of us slept a few hours last night at least.
Having fun! Or as much as you can on a speeding tin can.

We began our day by waking up in Sacramento around 7am; the last known location before sleep was somewhere around Eugene, Oregon. Some slept good-ish and some not so much, but regardless we were all struggling together which made it a bit more bearable. Throughout the day on the train we sat down in the observation car, watched the scenery change every couple hours, played some card games, napped (or at least tried to) and kept ourselves enternained with some form of media. Our travel day started in Sacremento at 7am yesterday and ended in Tijuana at 4am. Our train from LA to San Diego was delayed a bit and our train had some brake problems along the way which h...
