We've begun our spring break adventure! For a variety of reasons we decided to take the train to Chicago for my college friend's wedding this weekend.... yes, the train!
I must admit that I was a bit apprehensive about traveling on a train. It was an overnight train that left Rochester at 11pm and arrived in Chicago at 10am. I wasn't really worried about sleeping on the train, since I can pretty much sleep anywhere, but I was concerned about the toilet situation. We had a sleeper car & the toilet would be right there next to me.... eww.

In the end, the toilet wasn't really that big of a deal. We didn't allow each other to actually use it (we had to travel down the hall for the bathroom), and no, it did not smell.
The night of sleeping actually turned out to be a bit rougher than anticipated. The tracks are definitely not maintained that well & there was a lot of jerking around done by the train. When we awoke in the morning from our poor slumber we were definitely ready for some breakfast.
Breakfast is included in the ticket price for sleeper cars. We were able to pick anything off the menu.
