Marseilles Homeward Bound

So here we are on the train from Marseilles to Charles de Gaulle airport - direct train route without changing in a little over four hours! It’s like reliving our trip in reverse passing by Lyon, Beaujolais and Burgundy as the countryside rushes by.
We enjoyed a lazy two last days in Marseilles. One day was a food walking trip through the old town trying sardines, fried chick pea patties, slow cooked beef cheeks and bouillabaisse base fish dip amongst other things. At other times we just wandered around taking in the atmosphere around the old port but realistically it wasn’t our favourite city - a bit grimy and dirty compared to other towns.
A fabulous trip but as always looking forward to home and family and friends.Read more
