Wednesday, 2nd November
We are on the train to Montreal.
We snuggled up in one bed
yesterday, then I left and
moved into the other one. Ruth had remarked how easily Ben slipped
from English to Swedish. We do not really notice which language we
use, sometimes we mix it up. I thought we would both automatically
speak English here, but we do use a lot of Swedish. Ben's American
accent is more pronounced when he speaks English, that was quick!
Sometimes people overhear us speaking Swedish, and then he will say
something in American, and they realise he is a native, and are all
surprised.
We chose to go by train so we can
see the New England autumn. It is glorious. I have never been on a
long distance train in America, it is very nice and comfortable. We
had to change at Albany, and we have rather large suitcases. There
were porters on hand, we had made sure we had plenty of small notes
to tip. We had a late lunch on this train, it was very good.
We have an appointment at
Steelwerks tomorrow morning, the rest of the day we will do
sightseeing.
