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.

TOTALLY. Shosh dragged me to the Anne Frank house after all. I'm totally not crying... there's just something in my eye. >_> Give me twenty minutes and I'll be there.

*shows up almost exactly twenty minutes later, carrying a small plastic bag*

*sees Beth and grins* Hey... am I on time?

Hugs, kisses, anything goes. Though I'm not sure how much your Captain would appreciate me making out with you.

*smiles, setting his bag down, then reaches for her, pulling her into a hug that involves picking her up and spinning her around*

*sets her down* How's that for a greeting?

*looks over at the bag* Yeah... they sell these journals that look like the one Anne Frank wrote her diary in. Hannah's a writer, so I thought she'd like it? I don't know.

Buying Anne Frank souvenirs feels... weird. *clears his throat* So! Did you already order or can I still buy? *grins*

Good. I can pay then. *grins*

I think she'll like it. And she's always looking for new books to write in. I suppose... having something to remember her story by is good, but it feels odd when you're in the attic and people are posing for photos. It seems like a place for quiet reflection and people are smiling in these posed pictures. *shrugs* I don't know what I'm saying.

Brownies?

I smoked some in college, but it has been ages. *squeezes her hand*

Do you need another coffee too?

- Elijah

((No! OMG. I'm so sorry. I've probably forgotten all manner of tags with you that I totally didn't mean to. If there's anything I've let drop besides that, let me know? Did I mention I'm high on pain meds right now? The hospital hooked me up. :P))

*laughs* Sounds like a perfect plan. *sets her down in front of his door and digs for his key, unlocking the room and letting her walk in first*

Guys? Just me, honey. I'm spending my soon-to-be-ex's money, but I've been all alone.

I only had sex in Paris. *sighs*

If you're broke, food is on me. Or... my soon-to-be-ex. *grabs a menu and hands it to her*

I offered, but she said something about going out and meeting people and... *pinches the bridge of his nose* She's next door. And she crawled into bed with me this morning. *laughs as he sits beside her*

I'm thinking... lots of appetizers.

- Elijah

Re: Cafe in Amsterdam

[queer-theory.livejournal.com]

She keeps crawling in with me. After reminding me to keep my hands to myself. *laughs*

All of the appetizers and maybe some desserts?

Shoshanna was a virgin before she met Ray, and I'm pretty sure she wishes she still was one. There's not touching there.

*picks up the phone and orders ALL THE FOOD*

I suppose we don't. *sighs and asks for cake*
