Question

  Last month I had a meeting in Seattle,so I decided to bring the whole family and make a trip out of it. We had always wanted to take the train down the coast, so we decided this was the perfect opportunity. We flew up to Seat?tle,had a few fun days to explore the city and then boarded a train in Seattle in the morning.

  We arrived at the train station about 25 minutes before the train left. There were only a few other people in line,so getting on the train was so easy. Within 5 minutes of arriving we were settled in our sleeper cabin. The family sleeper cars felt spacious(寬敞的) .

  The scenery was beautiful and exciting. It was so great to sit next to the window and watch the country go by,which was very enjoyable. The train travelled all along the water as we headed south to Oregon. The best part about the train was that you could get up and walk around to do stuff,and ac?tually there was a lot of stuff to do. The service on the train was worth men?tioning. Everything was served in a way as if you were at a restaurant.

  When it was time to sleep,the agent helped us fold down our beds into double bunk beds(雙層鋪位) .I didn't get a picture of this,but it felt com?fortable.

  We had a great experience and have even been talking about taking a train trip across the country sometime.
