Ahoy,
So our logic that zipped us through London was that we have eurail passes for all the countries on our itinerary except London, London is boring (according to A's friend from London who is skeptical of everything), and we figured it would be the most like home. Sometimes a piece of home is not too bad. There is nothing like the hospitality of the French to make you want to go scurrying back to boring, familiar London with your tail between your legs. But alas, we began this journey with only the intentional direction of moving forward, and with our Dino companion as my witness we will persist. And we will make it home one way or another.
Winter travel is seeming more tricky than we originally perceived. I guess the holiday season really is upon us with plenty of folks scrambling home to meet the frenzy of another holiday gathering. Winter does not trump holidays, and people will continue traveling regardless of the season. There is no off-season for tourism in Europe because it doesn't really get cold enough, and maybe people are less pansy.
Our Lyon - Rome connection was fully booked, so this little snafu had us initiate plan b, which was a flight to Rome instead. The airline or airports cancelled all flights today, hopefully our flight tomorrow won't be cancelled.
We remain flexible, caffeinated, and aware of puppies.
faithfully fortunate,
jt
