…it will be from a high-speed, first-class train up and down Italy. Once we left Amalfi, we took the ferry down to Solerno, and then a train to Rome. Later, the train took us from Rome to Cinque Terre. Our last leg of Italy took us from Monterosso (Cinque Terre) to Mestre-Venice, probably the most relaxing travel I can imagine. First, I embrace everything that all five of us love, and these trains make the top ten. How often do you travel 3-6 hours and come out completely refreshed and not needing to pee? Second, my happy place is definitely the calm of a quiet train car with few people and roomy seats, with bucolic views at almost every point, giving me mental and physical space to compose posts. I have no conception for a book, but at least I know where it would be born.
Oh, and if I ever want to taste hell again, I will take the Circumvesuviana train from Naples to Sorrento again. The ying & yang of Italian trains!
