Sun, Sand, Surf & Smiles

Singer/songwriter Neara took our buzzword “intermodal” to extremes on her San Diego adventure! She also managed to coin the new hashtag #HipsterPirate, which we’re not exactly sure how we’re going to use, but we like it!

Here are the five best pics from Neara’s fun-filled day traveling Southern California on the Amtrak Pacific Surfliner. To join the fun, tag your own travel pics with the hashtag #AmtrakGram for a chance to win!

WARNING: Our adventures are best experienced with others!

The Pacific Surfliner travels between LA and San Diego with tons of great beach views in between. Did we mention you can even bring your surfboard, Dude?

Personally we prefer dry land, but we always respect other big machines.

For those who don’t know, this is a #HipsterPirate … a rare species spotted right in San Diego!

The most traffic-free stretch in all of California! What are you waiting for?
