Rockies Behind Us, On to Sierra Nevada's

Day 2

Woke up in Winnemucca, NV.

Railroad French Toast for breakfast. This is the best french toast in the world. I am totally addicted.

Todays route took us through the Nevada desert to Reno and then over the Sierra Nevada mountains. Along the way we passed through Truckee (Lake Tahoe area) and then Donner Pass where the famed Donner Party was stranded for a winter.



Arrived Sacramento mid-afternoon. We had a 9 hour layover here. Checked our carry-on bags at the station and walked around town a bit. We had hoped to catch up with Jim's brother Bob while here but he was in Los Angeles working. Spent a very long evening at the train station waiting for the midnight train to Seattle.
