A comment on Life Aboard the Longest Train Ride Through India.
* Jump out of the train at every station, do some stretches and get into the train when it just starts moving.
* Check the seating chart to find out who will be sitting with you, their sex, age, name etc.. :-) (don't know if they still display those charts)
* Talk to total strangers for a few hours - those were the days when there were no mobile devices to tune into (or tune out of the world)
* Sit/stand on the steps near the door - (stupid me, I now know it's dangerous)
* The excitement about sleeping in the upper berth - but that's the most uncomfortable spot without proper ventilation and very little room.
so many other little things, don't think I would enjoy all these now, but those were good old days.
