[QUOTE]Originally posted by sojourner: [QB] I always take ear plugs--don't use them, but I take them--and an eye mask--which I do use--when I sleep in coach (or you can just put a shirt or jacket over your eyes). There are safety lights in the coach cars, so it's good to be able to black them out when you want to sleep. Don't know about the dig-E-player but it seems a little pricey for me--depends on your tastes, though. This time of year, when it's light so late, I'd rather sit in the observation car (except during dinner) and look out at the scenery. That's why I liked to bring music and listen as I look. One could also bring a CD player and audio book on CDs, if you like audio books (I have trouble concentrating on those and would rather read from a real book when I read; I do that after it gets dark). I like bringing CDs with music about what I'm going through, e.g., cowboy songs for eastern Montana, Mississippi River songs for when I'm crossing that, train songs at any time. I also like reading books about the places I'm going to or trough, if I can. For instance, I read Campbell's Kingdom by Hammond Innis this time while in the Canadian Rockies. Then, when I read about a rock slide in those mountains a day after seeing a really big one live and in person, I knew what Innis meant! [/QB][/QUOTE]
