This is Dawlish, the beach closest to Exeter (~15 minute train ride, I think). So going there. Soooo pretty. (Plus, y'know, trains!!!, which have been an obsession of mine since I got that model train set when I was five or six. I heart trains.)

Wow. I have to say, it would be awesome to be on that train, being just off the ocean.

Soooo pretty. I wish I could visit. So, do you have a mailing address in England, so you could get snail mail? Can you give me the address?

They must have train employees whose only job is to clean noseprints off the windows.

[icepixie]

Totally. They have some kind of special steam line, too, that looks freaking awesome going along the ocean wall. Except for the cars, it's like something right out of 1870 or so.

I will at some point, but I don't know what is yet. I'll let you know as soon as I find out. :)

[icepixie]

Probably. So organizing a trip there in the first few weeks.

Wow. Note to self, when the day comes for me to actually go to England, make sure I hit Dawlish and ride the train.

And try not to yell "Choo choo!"

Dawlish is such a lovely place. And if you go to the little stream near the tourist-type shops, there are black swans :)

[icepixie]

I'll do the "Choo choo!" for you. ;)

(Oh, and this is so all HarveyNick's fault.)

[icepixie]

Eeee! I saw pictures of that--looks soooo cool.

[spleeny.livejournal.com]

I inspire both bad humor and "Choo choo"s with you. I am very pleased with myself right now.

[icepixie]

You've also inspired that frelling song about the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe to run through my head. Argh.

[spleeny.livejournal.com]

Hey, you're the one who brought up trains in the first place.

Anyway, I don't know that song well enough for it to get stuck in my head, so I'm immune to it. :)

Be glad. Be very glad.

I'm so glad that I'm doing a little dance. I call it the "I'm So Glad I Don't Know That Song That I'm Going to do a Little Dance" Dance.

Do you know "Casey Jones"? *eg*

[spleeny.livejournal.com]

I can't say that I do. But when I Google, I find that there's trouble ahead, trouble behind, and you know that notion just crossed my mind.
