I’m often critical of French rural timetables not being joined up
But this one works perfectly
The bakery in Nuits opens at 06:00, so there’s time to get a croissant 🥐 on the way from home to the railway station for the first train to Paris at 06:21 🙂
@jon if there is something French are serious about, its definitely everything relating to food and wine 😉
Want an upgrade in the train system, make it a big restaurant! 😂
Welcome to today's thread - #CrossBorderRail 2024 Extra Days 7 May - La Ciotat - Nice - Ventimiglia - Limone - Breil-sur-Roya - Nice - La Ciotat
Crossing these borders:
Cap d'Ail 🇫🇷 - Monte Carlo 🇲🇨
Monte Carlo Country Club 🇫🇷 - Monte Carlo 🇲🇨
Ventimiglia 🇮🇹 - Menton Garavan 🇫🇷
Olivetta-S. Michele 🇮🇹 - Breil-sur-Roya 🇫🇷
Limone 🇮🇹 - Vievola 🇫🇷
@jon When I was living in Nice, I took them quite a lot. Did a ballet internship in Monaco and had to use the Nice - Monaco line every day. I realized at the time how important and busy this line was (and unfortunately, not always on time 😫).
As for the Italian coast and limone it’s just 🤩 for me but this might be due to my unconditional love of Italy. 😗
Enjoy the trip and looking forward to reading your experience (it’s been a very long time I did not use these lines…)
Hi @jon!
While reading a report on “Empowering the Single Market to deliver a sustainable future and prosperity for all EU Citizens” I encountered this paragraph (photo attached). You are probably aware of it but I just wanted to point it out in case you were not!
@jon of course you did! 😅
Cool article about it. Very interesting! My key takeaway: viewing trains as a replacement of planes might not be the best way of thinking ☺️
@Moutmout j’imagine que c’est parce que c’est la transformation publique et la fonction publique. Toutefois, il semble que transformation publique n’a pas forcément beaucoup de sens (à une époque on parlait plutôt de transformation de l’action publique, ce que je trouve plus explicite !)
Tiens, @SuVergnolle est dans le Parisien ce matin (pour parler du rapport du Sénat qui fait suite aux émeutes de juin dernier et pour dénoncer la Nième attaque contre le #chiffrement).
10 ans au moins que je n'avais pas fait de gaufres maison, alors que c'est simplissime et tellement savoureux: farine, un peu de sucre, levure chimique, lait et beurre fondu. Miam, miam, miam. Avec de la confiture de griottes (le côté allemand) 😋
