Anaheim?
So you'll be doing Disney I suppose. I went 2 years ago and surprised myself by
enjoying it. I usually spend 2 weeks in LA in June, we'll have to see if our
trips overlap. Maybe I can get you tickets to see Leno or something, I've got
contacts "In the biz" as they say.
A warning, it'll take about an hour to drive from Anaheim to Hollywood. I'm not
kidding. Yes I realize its like 15 miles... At rush hour it'll take 2 hours at
least.
How much does it cost to take the train to LaCrosse? How much to fly? It might
be cheaper/easier to fly and then drive around. A quote from "Greg The Bunny"
(one of my favorite largely unknown Fox sitcoms) might entice you = "Nobody
likes train travel, all you see is poor people's backyards". I agree and I LIKE
rail travel.
How long is this trip? It sounds like theres going to be a helluva lot of
riding in trains...

Hi All
Hendrik's wife - name is Fay - here. Thanks for all the responses,
greatly appreciated.
We have our LA 4 day stay sorted. We have allowed 2 hours to get through
customs at LAX - is that enough time?- and have booked a shuttle service
to Anaheim as we are staying there for 4 nights.
I got cheap flights with American Airlines to Chicago & have found that
it is a ninety minute train ride to Milwaukee from there.
Have been on Amtrak website & we can go from Milwaukee to La Crosse by
train - 3 hour ride.
The main reason for train travel was to go from Chicago to New York -
but that means we have to go back to Chicago from La Crosse.
From New York I have looked at traveling by train to San Francisco.
Then driving to Las Vegas & then back to LA.
If anyone has any better suggestions please let us know - Hendrik would
prefer to drive & would love to do part of Route 66 from Chicago to Las
Vegas - however this would mean backtracking twice.
Our daughter & her team buddies are having a home stay in Decorah Iowa
before the conference in La Crosse.
They are all flying to Minneapolis/St.Paul as the Decorah people have
offered to pick them up from there.
As a back up if anything goes wrong I am trying to find a bus service
for them & am having trouble.
Is it Rochester buses that service that area?
Your smoking laws seem to be as strict as they are here in South
Australia, doesn't vary much from state to state here.
Rail travel is also really expensive here, depending where you want to
go it can be unaffordable for the average person.
Thanks all
Fay
