prendre le train






The train from Antibes to Montpellier is direct and takes just over 4 hours.
I caught up on loads of podcasts, ate my sandwich & drank my orangina, did lots of looking out the window and toyed with the idea of infact not getting off at Montpellier but continuing on to Bordeaux.

  3. Usually when I take the train I listen to "La Ritournelle" de Sébastien Tellier + I eat des madeleines. Perfect match + my face stuck in the window, eyes wide open...
    Merci Mary, j'ai envie de prendre un train maitenant... !

    those lights in the carriage are pretty nifty.
