Final Day on Train

Today is my final day on the Canadian train. Tomorrow, I am going to get off in Vancouver. I double checked my train car to make sure that I had all of my items packed into my bag. I decided that I would write a farewell poem and leave it on the train.

It went like this:

Farewell train, I've had a ride,
I've let you carry me with pride,
But all good things must come to end,
I hope you'll say you'll be my friend,
And carry me from A to B,
And if by chance again we meet,
You'll let me ride again.

Satisfied with my work, I went to the library car and picked another Sherlock Holmes book to read. I sat back in my chair and started to read Sherlock Holmes and The Giant Rat of Sumatra. I soon got hungry and went to the food cart. I discovered that I was going to be eating lamb today. I took it to a table, but was disappointed  It tasted horrible. I had much preferred the boiled chicken with BBQ sauce I had had previously.

I went to the game cart, but I did not feel like playing chess. I instead got into a game of UNO with a family that was taking a train vacation. I had a lot of fun. Soon, I wanted to sleep. I had to get up early the next day to get off the train.
