Taking in the views from the train window was often breathtaking-- especially of Nice and the towns in Southern France. <br /><br />Like you, there was a snag in the train ride. Due to a train workers' strike in Italy, they needed to reroute our train in the middle of the night in a train station in the middle of nowhere in Italy. Thank goodness this involved my friend and I being surrounded by about one hundred backpacking Americans so it was an adventure! However, we were not talked to so rudely by a conductor!<br /><br />The lit up castle sounds like it was beautiful. I hope you have a great day on the alpine lake!CourageousTeacherArtisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00183965610591049491noreply@blogger.com
