Quote from: ChrissyRyan on May 18, 2026, 04:37:44 PMThe West Highland Rail Line in Scotland looks like it may be very scenic.

It goes from Glasgow to the west coast of Scotland.


Yeah, it is supposed to be pretty epic. It goes through some fabulous scenery.

Quote from: ChrissyRyan on May 18, 2026, 03:44:14 PMI noticed one that goes on a southern anrea and another that goes to the Denali area.

Both are great trips. The one in Denali region is very modern. The one in the Southern area,is a day trip in anoles style train and takes you through the pass the gold prosecutors traveled to get to Alaska during the gold rush

Quote from: Lori Dee on May 18, 2026, 03:49:18 PMI think you should make a trip to Chicken, Alaska!

I don't recall if you had gone there before or were just talking about it.



I may indeed stop at Chicken after Tok or coming from Canada.  It is one of those towns you need to visit in fair and warm weather unless you have maybe a snow machine, and the businesses may be closed during the cold weather times.

The gold panning sounds interesting.  They also have some dry cabins for rent for overnight stays.  I guess they use composting toilets or outhouses and there is no running water in the lodging.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

You can use their unmetered showers in a shared area, not in each cabin or room.  No pets.

I watched the Netflix movie "My Oxford Year" as was marveling over the UK scenery at the filing locations, see https://thecinemaholic.com/where-my-oxford-year-filmed/ 🔗

Wow.

Those of you who live near there please comment!  Looks like must see colleges, towns, and estates.

Looking at that list the only places I've been to are Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Delft in The Netherlands ha ha! They were indeed nice!

Actually it is a bit embarrassing how little I've travelled South. But when I have the Lake District and Scotland on my doorstep it just doesn't have any draw for me.

I do not consider myself well travelled but I wonder if the Americans among us can dispel the myth that most Americans have never left the US? I'm betting most of you have.

I have been to France, Monaco, Majorca, Ibiza, Italy, Switzerland The Netherlands, Croatia (then Yugoslavia), and Greece. This I would class as not very well travelled. No real exotic long distance destinations and all in Europe.

Keep in mind that in both the USA and CANADA, people can travel by car for days and still be in the same country. One example I love to use is in the province of Quebec (Canada), you can drive 6 hours from Montreal to Quebec City and still be in the same PROVINCE. That same distance in Europe has you starting in one country, drive through a second, and arrived at a third, each country speaking its own language.

You can drive six hours within Texas, Alaska, Florida, Pennsylvania, and probably Montana and certainly California and still be in the same state.  If you drive slow enough, likely so in many other states.
