Haileah, FL to Wilmington, DE<!-- --> | <!-- -->Greg & Camille Go Bike

December 22nd, 2021 - December 23rd, 2021

We woke up early and, once again, rushed to eat all our remaining perishable food before setting out. Maybe some day we'll learn to buy a little less. En route to the train station, we stopped at Vito's Bakery for some more snacks. After only a few more miles of biking, we arrived at the Amtrak station with plenty of time to spare before departure.

The Miami to Wilmington train is a very, very long ride, taking more than 24 hours. It wasn't particularly comfortable, but it was certainly bearable. Not everyone seemed to agree though and at least one nearby couple decided to make other arrangements after only a few stops. Our car initially seemed to be reserved for passengers going longer distances and we were grateful that after the first few stops, there wasn't much turnover in passengers.

Early afternoon, Camille got a call from the City of Wilmington, but due to poor cell service she had to call them back later. We never ended up getting good service during working hours, but the next morning (still on the train), she finally got through. They offered her a position and she accepted!

Sometime after 11 am, we finally arrived in Wilmington. We biked home, eagerly navigating two miles along a very familiar route.
