first day in San Diego

I am finally starting the public journal I have been saying I would start writing years ago when blogging emerged. It seems a good time as I just arrived from a three day journey on the Amtrak train to the San Diego, California for a year away from my life in the hopes that I can create a new direction and start school in the fall of 2009.

The journey was sticky, dirty, and a little cold at night. It was also suprisingly beautiful and full, as the vistas of this vast country filled the picture windows of the observation car that Amtrak provides. I also met a few Americans, also a suprisingly rare commodity in my life as New yorker surrounded by folks who would not touch that title with a ten foot pole.
