It is Sunday and way late for Friday Fictioneers.  It is still better late than never.  We are hosted by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields of Addicted to Purple.  It is cold here in Saskatchewan and it must be freezing the creative flow.  I loved the show Route 66 with George MaHaris and Martin Milner. The prompt reminds me of my road/train trip in Japan.

She should have taken the Bullet train.  Instead she’s on the overnight train to Tokyo.  She thought it would be romantic. So here she was on the top bunk with barely enough room to sit up without hitting her head.  The air was so stuffy!

Thank God they had extra compartments!  For $50 extra she got herself moved.  She looked around the small compartment.  At least there’s room to breathe and she could stand up.  The room came with a 7-minute shower card and she got to use the American toilet instead of the squat.  Nothing romantic about squatting in pantyhose.  Whew!
