Almost Fainted on the Train!

Charles had another first experience today, though not a positive one. As usual we caught the 7:45 train to Roma but for some reason it seemed to be really packed and neither of the windows were open in the car that we were standing in. I started to feel really hot so I took off my sweatshirt and Allie noticed that I had gone kind of pale. Things were getting really bright and then they got dark. I decided to sit down on the floor and by this point I was sweating profusely and a few people noticed and offered to give me their seat. I drank a bottle of water and sat in a daze for the rest of the train ride trying to figure out what the hell just happened. I still don't know why it happened to me though we have seen people faint on the packed trains and busses previously. Unfortunately, I felt like hell all day with a slight ache in my neck and a headache. Don't worry though, I'm feeling better now and I survived to tell the tale.
