Last on the card is a view from a train window …

… and a suitable swan song for my postcards from Europe. This was taken on the TGV train from Barcelona Sants to Paris Gare de Lyon the day before yesterday, somewhere north of Lyon.

  3. Ah, the Train à Grand Vitesse….I went on it in its first year or two in the early ‘80s – probably 1982, because my father had told me about this new high speed service in France, and it sounded most interesting.

    1. Then funny thing is, it doesn’t feel fast when you’re on it, even though the info. board tells you you’re currently travelling at between 270 – 300 km. per hour.

    1. You will in due course Jude. I haven’t downloaded the photos yet, and still suffering from jetlag, despite the lack of plane journeys!

    1. Me too. Tran journeys are wonderful, and help acclimatise you to where you’re going instead of a big shock as you hit the tarmac!

  9. There’s so much more to travelling by train than plane. It’s marvellous the speed and yet you still managed to get an expressive, proper photo of the countryside.
