How do you keep occupied on a 26 hour train ride?|106453

My mom, my sister, _ I (sister and I in our teens) are going on a train ride to see our cousins, from southern florida to new york. How do we keep occupied on such a long train ride? Is it going to be as bad as we think? It is from 5pm to 7 pm the next day. How do I look decent after the ride? What are some crafts we can do? Will we be able to sleep? What will keep us occupied?? Help!

  • The steady rehythm of the train will have you fast asleep. When you are awake, you_ll find those around you willing to have a chat. Enjoy the ride

  • Scotch + Vicodin = Sleep
    Or, see how many times you can say _are we there yet?_ during the ride.
    wear jeans so you don_t look all wrinkly, and take off your outer layer for the ride and set it where it wont become wrinkled. Extra deodorant, and a pillow are a must.

  • Don_t worry. Go to a Doctor and have him prescribe you some Clonazepam take a tablet 20 mins before you get on the train, and the next thing you know, is that you_ll be waking up in Canada if you don_t have someone wake you up in New York, before!

  • wow 26 hours is a really long time. you will definitely be able to sleep. if you have an iPod that will keep you occupied but only for a few hours. you could also try bring magazines with you to pass time. you also asked for craft ideas. i don_t have any but if you have a laptop you could bring that and check your emails or what ever. there are a lot of things you can do on the Internet!

  • on long rides like that, i usually sleep or play games or make up stories with my family.

    reading or electronics work too

  • iPod, iPhone, laptop, books, games with your family

  • every once in a while you could run up and down the aisles screaming _Bridge out! We_re all gonna die!!!!!_ also, make sure you have a cell phone with plenty of texts.

  • If you have a laptop with wireless internet service definately take it. Also, take your cell phones and any electronic device you have. If you have a psp, take it. Take a nintendo ds lite too. If you_re not interested in video games you can always do pictochat on there which you can enter a chatroom and talk to surrounding people.
  • What is the best hotel to stay in las vegas and money isnt a problem?|163583

    I want to find the best hotel and i dnt want to go with the most expensive cos sometimes they dnt seem to be that great!

  • Venetian has a crazy ambiance, club, restaurants, shopping, poker room, and the rooms are very spacious also. went there for a convention and would love to go back..

    Bellagio has a huge casino, huge poker room, crazy Garden they theme up every season, their cafe has delicious corn chowder and club sandwich..the rooms have a TV station that plays the music to the dancing fountains, which was crazy. Only thing i didn_t like was the pit bosses weren_t too friendly with comps

    Wynn_s resort room was awesome flat screens in the bathroom, so you can watch while showering, room service was fast and well worth it, poker room kind of cramp, table games have emphasis on customer service and not the # of hands dealt.

    any 3 you_ll love

  • It all depends on what you mean by _the best_. If money is not a problem the most expensive will offer the most pampering that would be the Four Seasons. The cheapest room is around $400 per night all the way up to the Presidential Suite that can run tens of thousands.

    On the other hand, if money were no problem for me, I would stay at one of the centrally located hotels but reserve one of their best suites with the best view.

  • The Bellagio has the best free show in Las Vegas. Try some or all of their restaurants. You will not be disappointed. I enjoy their poker room. The art exhibit is incredible. Try the self guided tour. I always see the garden atrium as it is always fabulous. I recommend the Bellagio.

  • Romance : Venetian (suites), Pallazzo

    Gaming : Mandalay Bay, Bellagio

    Luxury : Wynn, Bellagio, Trump (no casino)

    Party and fun : Palms (suites are great), Mandalay Bay

    Rest and Relaxation: Venetian, Wynn

  • Wynn is overall the nicest, but Bellagio and Venetian/Palazzo round out the big three for luxury.

  • You can search and choose hotel information, rates and availability for free in over 200 countries world wide at my profile.

  • ya wynn is the most expensive and personally i thought it kinda sucked. I say Bellagio or the new Pallazzo are best

  • The Playboy Tower at the Palms, hands down.
    Nothing comes close to the view or the luxury.

  • Bellagio, The Hotel at Mandalay Bay, Palazzo and Wynn.

  • The Bellagio (5 Stars!!!)

  • Mandalay Bay

  • Freshly built one. Least amount of bed bugs. I am thinking Wynn.

  • The Wyn

  • Good....Give me $200 and I_ll tell ya.
  • How hard is it to sneak into general admission at warfield theatre, SF, or any venue?|102160

    i_m going to the love drunk tour on october 23 at the Warfield theatre and the best seats i can get are upper balcony :/ I REALLY wanted General admission but they sold out before i could save up money for tickets. So i_m thinking about sneaking into the general admission. how easy/hard is it? What are the consequences if i get caught? answer please!

  • Forget it Cindy. It is very difficult and you will get caught and ejected. Consider yourself lucky you have a seat and enjoy the show.
  • How early should I get to the train station on memorial day weekend?|114763

    I_m in boston, and I have taken the train in 10 years? How early should I get there?

  • For Amtrak get there an hour and a half early. 30-45min is cutting it wicked close. It is Memorial Day weekend and a lot of people travel that weekend, which means longer lines at the Ticket pickup and purchase center.

  • If you_re taking Amtrak, you shouldn_t have to get there more than, say, 30-45 minutes prior. That should be enough time for ticketing and check-in.

    For the purple line (commuter rail), you could buy your ticket on board.

  • Not sure which train you are talking about, but you can find all the schedules for Boston_s public transportation system (the T) at www.mbta.com
  • What is the infrastructure of Fort Myers and surrounding areas like?|112672

    In terms of schools, public services (fire, police, hospital), and commercial prospects and jobs. What is this forecasted to be in the future? Is it forecasted to improve in these different areas?

  • For commercial projects and jobs it is a particularly hard hit area. Punta Gorda, a nearby town, was where Obama went to show how bad things were as they were among the hardest hit places in the country from the economy.

    I know that they recently cancelled a multi thousand unit housing development that was to take place on Hancock Ranch. If that project ever gets going again than prospects will improve.
