Trip Mode

You’re going on a cross-country trip. Airplane, train, bus, car or bike? – The daily writing prompt, getting into my travel preferences.

A cross-country trip, that sounds nice. I’m getting up there in years so a bike be it, self-propelled or a motorcycle wouldn’t be the best thing. Even though those are the best ways to SEE the country. And I always enjoyed riding a motorcycle the most.

But again, too old, to susceptible to weather, and dangerous.

Buses make me nauseous. I’m not sure why because no other form of transportation does that. So that is out as an option.

I can fly but it certainly isn’t my favorite form of transportation. The whole experience isn’t pleasant.

Train or car would be my preference. I love to drive but sitting back on a train for a few days just enjoying the views, casual meals and stops in a few towns sounds good.

I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.

  1. Whether we take the plane, train or car, the latter carrying our bikes, will depend on the distance to be travelled.
