• Mâcon to Strasbourg (TGV)

    August 16, 2024 in France ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

    Eva took me to the train station and we waited together on the platform for the TGV to arrive at 2:16pm. My seat was #74 in the upper level, and when I found it, it was occupied. The lady in my assigned seat said that she had changed seats and that I could have her seat, if I wanted to. I asked her, "et si je ne veux pas?" She replied that she would return to her seat. I said that I was joking and asked her for the seat number. So, I went below, and found seat #47. The rest of the trip went smoothly. The TGV INOUI did not post the speed of the train, but normally, the highest speed is 295 km/h. The 2 videos posted are to show what it looks like from the inside of the train. 3:54pm arrival in Strasbourg. I found tram C then got off at stop Gallia. I found The Strasbourg People hostel by taking the "indirect" walking route (where are the street signs when you need 'em ??)Read more
