Train adventure

Today was a land adventure day to the middle of Corsica, a town called Corte, on a narrow gauge train. It travels along the coast making lots of stops then turns inland and up in the mountains past vineyards, and olive groves and small communities. There are 19 mountains taller than 2000 meters on Corsica! The Citadel of Corte is one of 7, is the only one built inland, and was started in 1419. It's built upon a rock above the town and is also called the "Eagles Nest". In 1769 the building of the Citadel continued. There is an anthropological museum of Corsica at the Citadel and the town of Corte also has a university! We had our last French meal (at least until we return to Paris to fly home!) at a restaurant around vieux Bastia. Bob says he's had his fill of moules frites and it's time to move on to Italian food 🍝🍕🍰🍨!Read more
