Trainin' down the road


Its been 3 weeks of Ringling adventures.  I have to say its been really nice traveling by train.  Its very easy to be lazy and sleep all the time. This last train run I learned a nice lesson...NOT to sleep the whole time, otherwise my body suffers and HURTS!   

Last week we were in the beautiful city of San Antonio.  I have lots of childhood memories visiting the Alamo and walking the River Walk.  It has been  nice being back in Texas after 10 years!  I was lucky enough to see some family and see a long lost friend.   It was also the city where I debuted my performance with Ringling!  Lets not forget my birthday!!  Needless to say it was a very long, busy, and FUN week!

        Now we have arrived in New Orleans.  A city that I have longed to meet.  I was able to start a normal schedule this week without any distractions.  Well, without many distractions. Its very easy to become a 'tourist' every where you go...staying focused is now a job.

The last two days it was either, stay in the train all day or take my chances of walking in the rain.  Duh, I took my chances...It rained off and on, and I was lucky to be caught in the warmth of it.  Like kids playing in the rain.

That's it for now folks!
