This little boy became my friend as we shared the train ride today. It was lots of fun because in 58 minutes we went through flat farm fields, then up into the hills, and then under a great mountain. In fact, in about half an hour we passed through 23 tunnels. Yep, I counted them on a piece of paper and the longest tunnel was 5 minutes at about 40 miles per hour. The trip was beautiful with wonderful Douglas Fir forests, mountain creeks and rivers, tall sandstone cliffs with climbers on their sharp edged sides. Slovakia is beautiful and reminds me so much of my home state of Oregon that even I get a bit homesick.
