Train Tip of the Day

By -
It takes a little while to get use to taking the trains in Europe. A good thing to remember is that they are always on time. If your train takes off 10 minutes early, you are not on the right one. If your lucky, you'll be able to deboard at the next stop, and catch the next train...the right train. But only if you're lucky enough to speak French and understand that's what the guy on the train who only speaks French is telling you! Of course, if your train happens to side swipe a car on its way through town up a mountain to your resort, then, it may be late...but never early! So keep a good eye on your watch because several trains pass through each day on each platform.

Post-Run Tip of the Day

This is a tip for those who might run where giant swarms of gnats sometimes loiter by the side of the road. This tip stems from a run on the Mayan Riviera in Mexico, but I've encountered swarms of gnats in Virginia and Kentucky as well. After your run, always stop and look in a mirror before going into public. Otherwise, you might actually complete a transaction at the resort store and greet five people before realizing you have up to 15 gnats stuck to your face and neck.
