These being my journal entries from a 1993 family vacation, via Amtrak, back east. I posted my entries in real time, weblog-style, 10 years to the day after they were written. Now you can read them straight through, starting from Day One, or use the calendar below.

The “Looking Back” section contains notes from the present day to put everything in context.

Looking Back...

Day 17 — Universal Studios Florida. My journal — empty empty empty. What a rotten let down this thing is turning out to be.

There was a highway sign that read simply “Remove accident vehicles from traffic lanes.” What an inspiring, upbeat, friendly public service announcement.

Universal Studios is much better than Disney-MGM. There are more rides, more room, and just an all together more pleasant experience.

But it’s late, and I must close up shop. Until tomorrow, then.
