Today was another big day on the train, by thankfully our last day of train travel.. yippee! We had just one changeover in Montepellier again. The first part of the trip took about 5hours and it was on the old 50's Spanish train again.. yucky!Once we changed over trains to the French one it took only 3hours to go more the twice the difference of the first part of the trip! We were on a TGV train which goes about 300km an hour! We arrived in Paris at about 630pm a...

It's a really nice drive even though on a highway with mountains and really nice countryside on either side. It took us about 4hours and we didn't even get lost!
