European Train Ride Week

[philstar22.livejournal.com]

Lets see if I can get it right this time.

Sorry this is so late. Ended up in the hospital this afternoon. This will be a low key week because I don't have it in me for a lot of activities at the moment.



Welcome to The Ebbsfleet International Railway Station located to the east of London. From here, you will be catching the Eurostar train to Paris. Make sure you have your Eurail train pass handy. This is the pass that will allow you to travel throughout europe. If you lose this, you may have to buy a new ticket or remain where you are while the rest of us go on.


Feel free to have a look around the station. The train will be here shortly. As soon as it arrives, you can find your seat and then wander around and get to know your fellow travelers.

Day 2: Welcome to Paris. Feel free to wander around and enjoy the sites.

Check out these attractions: Attractions

If you just want to find a hotel, here are recommendations: Hotels

Day 3: Welcome to Amsterdam. There are sites to see for everyone. Check out the canals. Eat in one of the many fine restaurants. Or if you are into more risqué fun, check out the Red Light District. Here.

We'll be heading for Berlin in the morning.

Day 5:
Today we've arrived in Venice. Venice is really a collection of small islands connected by canals. Venice is the perfect city for couples. If you want to stay around, you can catch the Venice Carnival that begins the end of January. For now, you can take a romantic or relaxing Gondola ride. You can take a tour of the city by boat. You can crash in one of the many luxury hotels. There are museums, amazing architecture, or opera houses. If nightlife is your thing, there are jazz clubs, coffee houses, and pubs to enjoy.

Day 7: And our trip this week ends in Budapest. Stay as long as you like and enjoy your trip home.

Oh, anything really. But my voice isn't really suited to rock. Pop, musicals, that sort of thing.

*glances over at Shoshanna, who is now off the phone and staring out the window*

You okay, Shosh?

- Elijah


*is silent for a moment, then finally says* I forgot to bring a book.

- Shoshanna


*digs through his shoulder bag and finds a book, handing it over and then turning his attention back to Beth*

So what do you do besides waitressing and him? *nods toward Steve*

- Elijah

*Shoshanna smiles and waves back, then looks at the book Elijah handed her, a trashy romance that she thinks she probably shouldn't be interested in, but can't help wanting to read*

Oh, girl, you've got to give me your number. I can get you in for free.

*glances over at Steve again* Is he not making his move or what? Because you're gorgeous. I don't get what the wait is.

What do you want to study in college?

- Elijah

*pulls out his phone and hands it to her* Go ahead and do that. And I can put my number in yours, if you'd like.

I totally get that. I was dating this guy awhile back... He didn't want to talk about anything to do with himself. It took ages to get him to say anything about his past at all. That's hard for people sometimes.

I bet you'd be great at owning your own restaurant. Would it be a diner or do you want to try some different kind of cuisine?

*puts his number into her phone*

That's tough... It was a similar thing for my ex, actually. He'd dated a guy who'd passed away.

I like places like that. Good coffee, classy, but kind of laid back. Comfortable to sit in.

*glances over at Steve and nods*

I love live music in a cafe! Will you have an open mic night? Where anyone can come in and sing?

- Elijah

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

Are you serious? *smiles* Oh my God! I'd love to do that. *hands her phone back* And now you have my number - Elijah Krantz.

- Elijah

*looks at his phone and smiles* I don't know any other Beths, so this is perfect. Thank you. *grin*

So we have got to meet up at some point during this trip and get lunch. I know you're going to be spending a lot of your time with hottie over there, but I'm going to be so bored.

*mock pouts*

*whispers conspiratorially*

Whatever it is, I am game. I think Shosh wants me to take her to the Anne Frank house.

- Elijah

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

Of course. I'm saying that I'm hoping to ditch Shoshanna. I don't want to visit the Anne Frank house.

That's probably mean of me, isn't it?

- Elijah

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

Fantastic. *grins, glancing back at Shoshanna just to see how she's doing*

- Elijah


*has a look of fascination on her face as she reads the book Elijah gave her*

Oh... oh my.

- Shoshanna


*looks back at Beth and smiles*

She's just gotten to the first sex scene. Guy-on-guy. I'm pretty sure she wasn't prepared. *grin*

((Bahahaha now I'm all OH WHAT DOES BETH WANT TO DO and OMG HOW SCANDALIZED WILL STEVE BE or better yet, will he go out on a limb for her... :X))

[nobodymove.livejournal.com]

((Ahahahaha. WELL I just asked and apparently he would rather be with her so he knows that she's safe and not high and alone in a strange country. Haha. So there's that if she wants his company. :X

Also, he'll tell her whenever we get back to the thread today, but he is not going on to Berlin. Although Beth is perceptive enough to have guessed that. Lol.))

((Boooooo. Now Elijah will have no one to hang out with. Because he is NOT going to the Anne Frank house with Shoshanna.))
