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.

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...

A restaurant/bar located in Hoboken, New Jersey known for having bands giving performances there. Delicious food and the lights are very dim giving people such experience.
I stopped by Turtle Club to see Tess and TJ performing before heading to flight school. Tess is such an amazing singer and TJ is very good with guitar.

A famous 1970's rock song by Creedence Clearwater Revival most known for its guitar riff in the beginning, middle and the end. Skiers often refer this type of music as a "ski resort music"
*Clearwater Creedence Revival: (guitar riff) (sings) "There's a place up ahead and I'm goin' Just as fast as my feet can fly..."
*Skier A: (impressed by the guitar riff) "What is the name of the song playing in the background?"
*Skier B: "Up Around the Bend by Creedence Clearwater Revival"
*Skier A: "Thank you, it's a really catchy song"

a local bar at Mont Tremblant where college students on spring break goes to party! Several American college students aged 18-20 take a trip to Mont Tremblant to legally get around the stupid American drinking age of 21.
Local bar: Can I see your ID please?
Student: (hands over ID)
Local bar: I am sorry you have to be 21 to enter
Student: WTF!? What happened to the 18 to party 21 to drink policy??
Local bar: Well that's just a rumor, you have to be 21 to enter AND drink.
Student: So apparently you're not letting me in because you think I'm going to drink, right? I'm just here to party, not drink!
(minutes later)
Student: (plans a trip to Mont Tremblant, Canada)
(weeks later)
