On the rails again… #Interrail #CrossBorderRail
Today I am heading up to Brussels, in the hopes of being able to do some sightseeing before #FOSDEM later this week. Brussels is a new city, and Belgium is a new country, being the 16th I visit since I started my sabbatical in August 2024.
I’m taking the route that “avoids Paris” by changing at Lyon and then skirting round the ring-rail and not actually stopping at any of the Paris termini. Whilst it’s a bit of a detour, it’s still better than having to change in Paris.
I will have an extended lunch break in Lyon, as the train that leaves immediately after mine arrives from Barcelona had no reservations available when I booked it at the end of last year.
Anyway, first I need to get past the 90 minutes or so of communications blackout that is the Barcelona-Perpignan line… See you in France!
