Guest guest Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 I LOVE Iowa's programs. It is small, intimate and you can sit up close to Amma and have an unobstructed view almost the entire time. AND it's the first place in which I saw Amma so it is very special to me. I may not make it there this year for the first time since seeing Her in 2002. I hope I find a WAY to be there! Rick-where is that Amtrak station? Boy that would be great to use instead of driving after Devi Bhava! I wonder how much tickets are from St. Louis. Ammachi, Mike Brooker <patria1818 wrote: > > > Why is Iowa the best?

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 I'm sure Rick knows the train situation better than I do, but last year I took the train west to Creston, IA, where I stayed with friends, then a few days later took it back east to Chicago, and flew to DC from there. I loved riding the train. J. Ammachi, Rick Archer <amma wrote: > > on 3/25/06 11:09 PM, Adriane at a1driane wrote: > > > > Rick-where is that Amtrak station?
