Yes - couldn't agree more.

I hate flying so if I'll always take a train if the option's available.

In a couple of months my wife and I will be traveling across Australia
from east to west by rail - 4500km; 3 days/3 nights.  We're taking the
car, so we'll be driving back.  I can't wait!!

Thanks for the comment.
