I’m in Europe, and just finished a 1,200 mile journey by train.
That’s like going from Omaha, Nebraska to New York.
Or, as we went North to South, like me going from Bluffton, OH to Miami Florida.
Anyway. The original plan was to fly into London and then take the high speed train to Paris. It is just a couple of hours. Transfer in Paris to take the high speed to Barcelona. That’s a long haul in a single day, but it would let us spend a couple days in Barcelona. Then high speed rail from Barcelon...

I have always wanted to take a long train ride and spend a few nights in a sleeper car. Perhaps one day I will. Your trip has renewed my enthusiasm to take one. I really wish America had not ripped up so much track. There are such great areas to see here and we have basically shot ourselves in the foot on mass rail travel. America used to lead the way but I think we are just becoming bystanders in too many areas.
Have a great time in Europe and at Loncon!
