Train Travel

Just a quick side note. I took a train from Hamburg, Germany today, ending up in Stockholm, Sweden (all day pretty much and I had to switch trains in Copehagen). So, I had fallen asleep for the first leg of the trek, and woke up thinking we were at a train station. I was surrounded by white metal to the right, and we kept moving from side to side--swaying. I then looked to my left and realized there was a motor home...it took me a little while, but I finally realized that my train had docked on a ferry to cross over into Denmark. Who knew trains could do that! Needless to say, the water was very rough and I'm still feeling the after effects of the swaying, like I just spent the day at waterworld...maybe it's just the wine? Don't think so. I'm just glad I don't have to do that again, very nerve wracking being confined in a train in a ferry hall. But, at the same time very cool, so I thought I would share. Those suffering from motion sickness should not attempt.
