Planes, Night Trains, Automobiles and More - by Quillian

Last night we went on a night train from Nihn Bihn to Hue, Vietnam. We left at 10pm and arrived at 9am. It was super fun. The room was as big as a medium sized closet with two bunk beds on either side of it. My mom and dad took bottom bunks. Tre and I got the better top bunks. I don't know why they took the bottom bunks, but I am sure glad they did. When we finally got on after waiting for the train to come, I had to put my bag below me and climb onto the top bunk so that everyone could get in and stop blocking the hallway. We had already eaten dinner, so we didn't have to get food from the people yelling in the hallway selling stuff. It was pretty late so we went to bed. We woke up around 7am and ate some of the food they gave us in cardboard boxes. It was fine, but buffets are much better. We read for a while and when we got off, we took a taxi to a super amazing hotel my mom picked out and it had a buffet.
