Hello everyone :hi:
First time poster on here - great forum, ben reading for a few days!
OK, here goes.
I am off to San Fan for 4 nights with a friend in September and then taking the Zephyr to Chicago and staying for 4 nights before flying back to London.
I have been watching YouTube clips of the Zephyr, studying the timetable and generally been amazed by the sheer distance and sights en route.
Are there any tips for first time travellers to avoid boredom, becoming fidgety and fed up apart from keep hydrated, eat well and ty to sleep well? Also, any tips for best places to get great camera pics.
One last thing, we are both smokers (I know, bad) and 2 days and nights without a nicotine fix sounds horrendous for us so are there scheduled 'smoke stops' en route every few hours or is it frowned upon totally? I have been told Denver is the main place but any more?
:help:
Many thanks
