After our brief stint in Paris we went to the Gare de L'est and caught our train to Reims. Since we live a life of ease and leisure, we booked first class seats facing each other with a table in between.
Train travel is by far one of the best things about Europe and, as you can tell, I am suuuuper excited about this (and the Gouda flavored crackers, which were delicious).
As you can see from the screen behind the girl with the silly cheeks, the train goes well over 300kph (186mph). The highest speed we saw the screen get up to was 330kph, which is over 200 mph.
Just in case you were wondering why someone had silly, puffy cheeks. The answer, as usual, is wine.
Checking out the scenery. Even going really fast, its a great way to see parts of the country outside of the city. And doing so with a Belgian beer and (amazing) French crackers makes it even better.
