BEAR takes Eurostar to Paris

0 comments Posted by pece at 10:23 PM

BEAR thought it might be fun to invite you along for the trip from London to Paris on the Eurostar (or 'The Chunnel' as we American heathens call it...)

After you book online, and as far in advance as possible for the best prices, you've got to high tail it over to St. Pancras Station.

Eeeek!
It's only 4:10 AM and our train is not until at 5:25 AM
Another eeek!
We were moaning to David at the Club about how early we had to get up to catch the 5:25 AM to Paris. But he reminded us that we did pay less, the train would be way less crowded (it was) And we'd be in Paris much, much sooner then if we took a later train.

St. Pancras is practicment vide/empty..

St. Pancras railroad station was designed by Gilbert Scott and built in 1868. Though it's been renovated for expanded service, it still retains many Victorian details like these gothic windows...

Really quite a thrilling space to have all to yourself...

AND there are at least 20+ shops to browse, almost all of them closed. Bear contemplates lovely catty socks - too purfect...sigh

Ah...a Bear hat!

And a FREE cuppa!

Clever Pain Quotidien IS open for hungry travelers fortunately...

We take a look at the check-in board.

Check-in is approaching...

You smash your ticket agains the square window et voila!

You wait some more inside.

Other people are busy taking last pictures of London...

BEAR waits patiently...

BEAR gets impatient!

BEAR is first going up the flat escalators to the trains.

He has adopted New York pushy ways I'm afraid...

BEAR searches for coach #2, seat #72.

At last BEAR settles in and falls instantly to sleep.

zzzz...

BEAR wakes up to catch a glimse of French countryside.

Where did the time go?

Et voila!

Back in Paris at busy Gare du Nord Bear heads for the Metro.

Back on the streets comme d'habitude red red red...

More RED!

If you're wondering what BEAR is reading on his travels, he found Martha Gelhorn's (former wife of Hemingway) book, Travels with Myself and Another in London. The catchy subtitle grabbed him -

'5 Journeys from Hell'

Perfect reading everytime we wanted to moan about something like getting up insanely early to catch the Eurostar to Paris...ahem

BONJOUR EUROSTAR!

Tendance Rose

0 comments Posted by pece at 10:31 PM

Word out.

Paris is thinking PINK

Tendance rose/trend pink.

Forgetabout RED PBers!

The first indication that something was going on was this lush gateaux in Lenotres vitrine. I spotted it coming out of the Metro the minute I set foot dans le rue...

Of course France is in love with the iPad.
And this has to be a French Girl.
Ballerinas - check
Mariniere striped shirt - check
Pink jeans?
What's up with that I'm thinking...
