Wow, these trains are super fast! Why can't Amtrak go any faster? Amtrak and VIA Rail has lots of lessons to learn from Eurostar Italia.

Jackson Hole

A mountainous region in western Wyoming at and around Grand Teton National Park. This area is so beautiful that it attracts tourists year-round. In the winter, people come from all over the world to go skiing.

Wow, this place is beautiful! It's worth taking a five hour flight to Salt Lake City, have a one hour layover there, and then have one more hour of flying to check out this beautiful Jackson Hole!

Avalon Hotel

An old hotel located in Cartwright Gardens in London. Despite being over 200 years old and aging, it's still used by tourists.

I didn't know that Avalon Hotel was a luxury hotel! It looks like rundown apartment from outside!

Pacific Ocean

The world's largest ocean. People who doesn't have a good sense of direction will easily get lost while attempting to navigate the Pacific. Also has beautiful coastlines.

A Delta Air Lines pilot tried to fly from Los Angeles to New York but instead, he got lost somewhere in the middle of the Pacific Ocean since all planes were forced to take off facing the ocean.

Drinking age

mostly 18, sometimes 16. But in the United States, it's 21. Main reason why American college students leave the country for spring break. Also proven to be a trap for international students coming to study.

Scenario 1 (local American student)

Bar tender: Can I see an ID?
Student: (hands over fake ID)
Bar tender: Looking at your ID it does not appear to be real, I am sorry but you have to leave.
Student: WTF!?! I am seriously sick and tired of waiting until 21. I am going to Canada for spring break where the drinking age is 18!! Maybe party in Montreal! Plus they are generous to accept my American drivers license there.

Scenario 2 (International student studying in the US)

Bar tender: Can I see your ID?
Student: (hands over a European passport)
Bar tender: I'm sorry but you gotta be 21 to drink
Student: WTF!? I thought you have to be 18
Bar tender: Nope, it's 21, and it will always be
Student: Then I was tricked, in my country I can drink at age 18. The US has the stupidest drinking age ever and they seem to hate college students like us...
