So far this month is running more than 2C below average both here and in Melbourne. This Povember is officially ****. Feral in Melbourne, a few 16C days (including today). A short warm spell will be followed by another polar outbreak and temps in the high teens. Disgusting.
lol I had 18C. Every high teens day in Melbourne is 20C in my suburb so I guess that's alright considering??
I think you've mentioned it, but how much time does it take to get to NYC by train? The fastest train from here to Marseille takes about 2.5 hours for 125 miles, with numerous delays lately do to track repairs. Then a mere 3 hours to do the 500 remaining miles to Paris.
Springfield to NYC isn't really that much slower than I said — between 3hr9min to 3hr25min for 140 miles but it's a bit far from me and the ticket price can be a bit steep. Northampton (closer to me) to NYC is scheduled for 5 hours for the additional 20 extra miles from Springfield. And the cheapest ticket is $61.

I enjoy driving, even by myself. The drive on my own from Paris to here was a breeze, even if a tad boring. Better be alone than have a whiner on the passenger seat.
Yikes. A 600 mile drive by yourself so awful. I've wanted to drive to northern Maine to do this but didn't seem worth the 7+ hour drive. Depends on my mood, sometimes I enjoy drives by myself, good for contemplating. Other times get very bored. That NYC drive was worse than usual because of the constant congestion; it's usually congested but that was especially bad.

600 miles is awful? Try doing it for a 1000...lol. I've never driven that far straight through on my own though - I'll break that up by overnighting somewhere, like I did on my return from Syracuse.
