It's Not Quite the Orient Express, But I'll Take It
While the National Rail Service isn't quite the Orient Express-- or its special line, the Venice Simplon-- in my head, it's every bit as romantic. Speeding through the Scottish & English countryside from Stirling to Kings Cross reading and cuddled against the arm of a handsome man. You'll hear no complaints from this small American. I'm not a big believer in 'reality'-- or, at least, I'm a big believer in reality is what you make it. So here, thanks to the people at the beautiful This Is Glamorous blog, are some images of what I feel today, even if it's not entirely true to what I see.
Speaking of train travel, as part of our 'get street cred for Nicholas & Alexandra' Russia trip, we talked about taking the Trans-Siberian Railroad. I'm still up for that as well. Bring on any form of travel that doesn't require a pat-down and a full body-scan is what I say! Hope you're having a dreamy Sunday, wherever you are.

I absolutely adore train travel, especially since it's such a novelty for us Americans and the European countryside by train is breathtaking!
