#weekendwanderlust A 5) I really want to do the Jacobite Steam Train in Scotland since I'm a huge Harry Potter fan
replying to @LitchfieldFund @LitchfieldFund That would be awesome! Probably not too hard to put together, too. #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @CourseCharted @CourseCharted We have so much catching up to do in the USA. :( #WeekendWanderlust

replying to @ABritSoutherner @ABritSoutherner @TravelLatte Yes, I have traveled those areas a lot and they are wonderful! #weekendwanderlust
replying to @obligatraveler @obligatraveler Yes! I mean, you'd have to, right? I'm just a little concerned about finding the right station. ;) #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @CourseCharted @CourseCharted I’ve heard the stations are amazing! #WeekendWanderlust
#WeekendWanderlust A5: Not an iconic trip, but we learned recently that @Via_Rail has service to Churchill #Manitoba, where you can see Polar Bears AND the Northern Lights! Who’s coming with? #travel
replying to @TravelLatte @TravelLatte I noticed you're from DFW. I was just there last weekend! Had some amazing fried chicken and line-danced the night away #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @LindayForDayz @LindayForDayz That seems like a reasonable price? #WeekendWanderlust
#weekendwanderlust A 6) Not a rail pass on a fancy train, but we found getting the weekly pass for the Subway in New York City, even though we only stayed 4 days saved us a ton of money. Especially when we accidentally got on the wrong train platform
replying to @obligatraveler @obligatraveler Yes! I really want to as well! #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @LindayForDayz @LindayForDayz What was the occasion? Or was it just for the chicken'n'dancing? :) #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @ABritSoutherner @ABritSoutherner I don't have a blog or anything. I used to be severely depressed and one thing that made me feel better was exploring the world. Since I have flexible work hours and no boyfriend I just pick up and go whenever I want. Great feeling! #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @obligatraveler @obligatraveler I did the same thing. Got a 7 day pass for a 5 day trip. Saved SO MUCH and then I donated my remaining days to someone. #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @ABritSoutherner @ABritSoutherner @TravelLatte I have to do a hometown plug! This is a great visit if you are ever in Scottsdale: The McCormick Stillman Railroad Park! https://t.co/Ni08CGTSKx #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @WWTravelChat @WWTravelChat A5: We would love to experience the @RoyalGorgeRoute 🚂 💛 #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @obligatraveler @obligatraveler Good tip! :) Wrong train platform in NYC makes it easy to discover new neighborhoods, at least! (AKA: How we got to Queens. ;) #WeekendWanderlust
A6- I used a Rail Pass for my first trips to Amsterdam and Paris #WeekendWanderlust #travelingsession
replying to @LindayForDayz @LindayForDayz @ABritSoutherner I love this mentality. I also deal with depression and anxiety. Travel helps me as well ♥️ #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @wildheartedblog @wildheartedblog Flying there, of course! I think I'm gonna do it. Be spontaneous! #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @LindayForDayz @LindayForDayz @ABritSoutherner Go you! We like to just pick and go, too...but being two makes that whole work schedule nonsense very annoying. ;) #WeekendWanderlust
#WeekendWanderlust A7: Maybe we’re on the wrong trains? Most of them haven’t had a First Class, though we did book Business Class on the Amtrak Acela from Philly to DC. It was comfy & came with breakfast! #travel

replying to @TravelLatte @TravelLatte I was at a young women's leadership conference which they paid for about half of my expenses. It was a good deal. But Texas weather is wild! Not used to the humidity. #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @LitchfieldFund @LitchfieldFund @ABritSoutherner Whaaat? I don't remember that! Obviously need to get home more often. (Clicks heels "I want to go home, I want to go home, I want to...this isn't working guys...) #WeekendWanderlust
A7: Depends on the price difference and distance. If it's a long trip without too much price difference, first class! #weekendwanderlust
replying to @TravelLatte @TravelLatte @ABritSoutherner Are you from AZ? #weekendwanderlust
replying to @LindayForDayz @LindayForDayz @TravelLatte Oh the humidity. Being from Tennessee but having lived in Washington for a couple years - damn I miss the no humidity. #WeekendWanderlust
#weekendwanderlust A 7) I think it would depend on the train ride. In Alaska we booked second class from Fairbanks to Denali and First Class from Denali to Fairbanks
replying to @LindayForDayz @LindayForDayz Oh gosh, we've had the strangest weather. Not the time to be in DFW anyway, but it's been wetter than normal. And we had a horrible storm this weekend, too. You must have been at the airport before all heck broke loose. Again. #WeekendWanderlust

replying to @LitchfieldFund @LitchfieldFund @ABritSoutherner Rob = Tucson native mistakenly transplanted to Texas. Ann = Never been to the Grand Canyon State. Gotta fix that! ;) #WeekendWanderlust
#WeekendWanderlust A8: No! And we’re dying to! We want to take the Amtrak Empire Builder from Seattle to Chicago, and get a sleeper car. But we’re afraid of what we’ll miss while we’re sleeping! #FOMO is real…. #travel
A8: YEP! I traversed the arctic to Åre in #Sweden to get to the best ski mountains via sleeper car - risky proposition in winter but everything turned out ok! 🛌🚊 #WeekendWanderlust
replying to @wildheartedblog @wildheartedblog @LindayForDayz Try being raised in Arizona and moving, well, almost anywhere else. ;) #WeekendWanderlust
A4: I've been meaning to get over to Skykomish, WA. The whole town is centered around the Great Northern & Cascades Railway. #WeekendWanderlust
