The experience is usually very pleasant although from time to time there is a colorful personality who has finally found a captive audience. There a few things I think about when I ride the trolley. It takes about 20 minutes to get from H street to One America plaza, where I start each day. During the commute, occasionally I read or nap, usually I am listening or even watching my iPod. Even though I live a harried life, I have managed to carve out 20 minutes in which I can listen to podcasts or music or even read a book. Another benefit, is that I have put an average of 1000 miles per year on my car.
  Showing up for work, fresh and saving wear and tear on the car and not spending my parking allowance, even meeting some interesting people. Take the trolley yourself, it will do good things for your life.
