However, I know a lot of people that have taken the train or the bus when doing large jaunts so that they could go at night and sleep. This kept them from losing an entire day just on travel. Guess that option depends on your ability to sleep in that style, b/c if you can't then it won't help for time, anyway.<br /><br />If she can follow a map, might not be a bad idea to rent a car. This will also give her some amazing scenery and a way to explore the areas surrounding the colleges.<br /><br />Sounds like a really fun journey. There are times I wish I could go back and try to do just that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06477543108055597027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-12112709534327299792006-11-14T01:36:00.000+10:002006-11-14T01:36:00.000+10:00Public transportation?

Middle America is, unfortunately, not so big on public transport.<br /><br />I went to a Big Ten university (Purdue and Madison are part of the Big Ten Conference), and I hope your sister enjoys her visit at these campuses. Madison is an especially cool place and definitely worth an overnight/weekend visit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-22178966754517425752006-11-12T07:59:00.000+10:002006-11-12T07:59:00.000+10:00Hey, Thalia - it's Washington State, waaay over on...Hey, Thalia - it's Washington State, waaay over on the West Coast, but it's good to know Penn is walking distance from the station. She's a light packer and will no doubt be taking her backpack. I'll tell her about Genji's.<br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />This is the stuff I need to know.<br /><br />BeaBeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11877513815828460269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-87901698141515513342006-11-12T01:35:00.000+10:002006-11-12T01:35:00.000+10:00If washington is DC, then that's an easy trip on t...If washington is DC, then that's an easy trip on the train to Penn. Penn is walking distance from the mainline train station, depending on how much luggage she has. Or it's just 2 stops on the subway. Philadelphia is very public-transport friendly, and a wonderful place to visit. While she's there she should go to Genji for sushi. There used to be one near the university but I think I heard it had closed down. There's one in center city still, on Sansom St between 17th and 18th.Thaliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12125639207843989848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-85875960762714862482006-11-12T01:12:00.000+10:002006-11-12T01:12:00.000+10:00Hey Bea, I've sent you a PM via EB.
