Trains

There was lots to see



The Seabourn chocolate on my pillow did not fool me when I climbed
up to the upper berth, I knew we were not still on the Seabourn

 We left Copenhagen, Denmark at 6:20 p.m. and enjoyed beautiful scenery.  We had the opportunity to see a lot since it doesn't get dark until after 10:p.m.  Our small compartment was comfortable and the 12 hours went by fast.  We were served breakfast early and got off for our change to Strasbourg.  There was a very nice young German business man getting off at the same time who handled our luggage and showed us which platform we needed. The second train was in route to Paris after the Strasbourg stop. There appeared to be a couple of honeymooners on board.  We spotted a Best Western Hotel across the street from the train station when we departed the train in Colmar.  This seemed like an easy way to go as we leave here by train for St. Raphael.  The historic center is a 500 meters walk and proved to be a good location.  We left our luggage in the lobby until check in time and took off walking, enjoying some sun and warm weather.

Copenhagen train station is not for the faint of heart

By the way, getting up into the upper berth is not something you would want to photograph
