< on 8/11/2008 9:45 PM >
|  | | | The night before we got to our hotel around 23.00. We were lucky they still had two rooms for us. But the kitchen was already closed and we didn;t had any proper meal. We asked if there was a restaurant in town that still served food - no.
So we decided to eat beer. We each drank about 5 beers and got to bed only to wake up at 04.00 to do our next location.
04.15 - we arrive and Bart's rope ladder was put to use to get over the fence. You don't want to climb a pointy fence with a hangover.
The next challenge we faced were mosquitos. There were literally millions of 'em here. We spend about an one and a half hour at this place and then we couldn't stand it anymore.
I got about 30 bites and Bart (wearing his short trousers) about 70!
Still it was worth it! Take a look at these beautiful old steam locomotives.

| | | | 1 and 5 are best ones - first one have almost surreal mood because hay looks damned fine, its almost like some strange sea that train is running through.
Fifth has excellent composition, and it brings out very well massive of trains.
Good work, all of them anyway.

Final Fantasy 7. The Train Graveyard was a place in the game, but everyone probably knows that...

| | | | I like them a lot. I dont have much to offer from a critique standpoint other than all of the elements have the same tone. Everything blends together, I would like to see the trains standout a little more.
