I did this trip by train and bus in November, 2009

NOV. 3/2009 Bay Street Terminal, Toronto

Usually I travel on the third of the month or on a date that can be divided by 3: 21,9,18,27......
My US trip is starting today. The sun has just set behind the Victorian houses West of Spadina; low in the sky this time of the year. I went through the smells of China Town, I'm early. I want to get a good seat on the Greyhound bus. I also wanted to travel during the day to see as much as I could , but it will be night on the first stretch of my journey. Never mind. I'll try to take the bus back during the day. First stop, Chicago!
