March 26 -5- Train

After Joan and Kathy's adventure in the Moroccan mall, We returned to the train station across the street. The rain, by this time, had stopped but I was glad I had put on the warmer clothes.

We arrived at 9:05pm and our train was not yet ready for boarding so we watched a man play with a kitten and a leaf from a nearby plant.   I told Joan that as we had no internet we had to watch the kitten video IRL to waste our time.

We got on the train, window seats for both of us in a first class compartment but we didn't know you could turn off the lights.   I promptly fell asleep.

I got 5 hours of sleep, the first five, while the lights were glaring and the man who decided to join our car took/made 9 noisy calls throughout the night.   As soon as it was quiet, Joan and I were able to stretch out and lay down, the light went out (we found a light switch) sleep became elusive.   The night train stopped at all the little stations along the way. We left at 9:55pm and we were expected to arrive at 5:30am.
