Seattle's was especially impressive; we are able to travel by light rail all the way from Everett (a more-than-a-suburb to the north) right to the Seattle-Tacoma airport with a one-block walk to switch trains in downtown Seattle. We're still a long way from Europe (or Mexico City, for that matter) in terms of developing public transportation for most cities, but hopefully these fairly new transportation systems are a good sign of things to come.gfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07190198394206152918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19053670.post-41724645957157688092010-08-25T07:25:09.832-07:002010-08-25T07:25:09.832-07:00Hey Lorry!!!

I thought those were so cuteā¦ until people kept destroying them, of course. Sigh. I'd love to see fun stuff like that at train stations over here, and I want to believe that they wouldn't get wrecked, but who knows.Lorryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781837154327733864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19053670.post-45936747005072177402010-08-24T13:32:26.385-07:002010-08-24T13:32:26.385-07:00Hey Ren!!!
