No!
It's not a spaceship.
It's the fast train into the Central Terminal in Rome! Not only is it frequent, fast, efficient and stunningly clean (with the spunkiest officers: groomed to model-like perfection. Immaculately attired in sartorial elegance! Did I mention they are hot as hell!?) but it is so quiet, fully air conditioned and spacious! From Airport to Rome in 32 minutes! (Melbourne take note). And, I'm charging my phone next to my seat! It's absolutely amazing! I thought I'd seen it all! Well! This is the ducks nuts! (As Gerri would say!)
Let's go back a bit: getting through the Airport (also spotless) was uber efficient! Everyone smiled. Travellators at every turn and people to tell you nicely if you make a wrong turn (which they don't have to because it's all well signed and all languages! (Greece, take note!).
Now back to the Leonardo express! It has exact sized spaces for your bags! It's got charging ports at every seat! Clean, well constructed toilets that are sparkling clean. No s*** on the walls, no graffiti inside or out and smell better than any room I've been in so far! (Except the Z in London) The carriages are immaculate and plenty of seating! Did I say it was clean? Just wow! I was worried how I was going to work out how to get into The City!
It was scheduled to depart at 10.53pm. Guess what? The clock ticked 10.53. It went that second. Announcing that it will arrive at 11.23pm. I have no doubt! (Greece: take note!) (Sorry Greece - Not sorry).
Next challenge to find my hotel!?
I think it was around here somewhere!
