I just read a report that airplanes are the fastest growing contributor to global warming! In light of this news, why not take a train instead? In fact, Los Angeles has a great old train station, which is also fun just to wander around and pretend like you're in a classic movie. One night I ran through Union Station with ice-cream and flowers for my grandparents who were passing through by train. From Union Station, you can take a lovely ride down the coast to San Diego or up the coast to Santa Barbara. Keep going north and there are beautiful views of ocean waves splashing on rocks. You can go all the way to San Francisco - actually you can go anywhere in America. Just don't forget your fedora hat!Amtrak:

I also prefer to take trains because I don't need to spend time checking in and on security.
However, for some long distance trips, I still need to take airplane since I can save time.
I have been to San Diego by a train. It was quite different experience from taking an airplane. People in the train were talking to each other pleasantly. Through their conversations, I could see American daily life. Next time, I want to go santa babara by a train!
I want to take a train,too. :)
I also heard Santa Barbara and Union station is great place.
I hope to visit there and take a train soon.
Have a great holiday! :)
I would like to go to Santa Babara by train one day.
