cfbbackup | European Train Ride Week

philstar22.livejournal.com posting in

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.

I want to be far, far away when Sherlock figures that out. It won't be pretty.

~John

*texts* I'll respect your wishes on that, but if you ever change your mind... Is a dozen brownies sufficient or should I get more?

If you do anything too crazy, I'll be doing it right along with you.

~Mycroft

((I've dumped Mycroft off in the new thread, if Lestrade wants to show up there.))

*texts* You and me both.

Fair enough.

- Molly

Should be enough, love. I'd say not to get yourself arrested on the plane trip home, but then I'd be forgetting who you are, wouldn't I?

- Greg

csichick-2.livejournal.com

Maybe we should go on holiday when that happens. I hear South America is lovely.

~John

So, what do you usually do for fun, Molly?

*texts* The only person in law enforcement that will ever know about the brownies is you, darling.

~Mycroft, trying to make small talk

*blushes slightly, shaking her head at the idea of John Watson ever wanting to take a vacation with her*

*puts her phone away*

I'm a workaholic, Mycroft. I watch Glee and knit.

- Molly

Good. Now stop texting me. I'm very busy and important.

- Greg

From:

csichick-2.livejournal.com

*texts* Yes, dear.

What is Glee?

~Mycroft

From:

queer-theory.livejournal.com

It's a really bad TV show about singing teenagers. *finishes off her first brownie*

How quickly am I supposed to feel this?

- Molly

From:

csichick-2.livejournal.com

I don't really have time to watch telly.

It depends, but it usually doesn't take too long. *is only halfway through his first brownie*

~Mycroft

From:

queer-theory.livejournal.com

*nods* So what do you do for fun? Besides Greg, I mean.

- Molly, who just really wants to be high and not care as soon as possible

From:

csichick-2.livejournal.com

Considering you just asked that question, I think you're starting to feel it.

*quickly finishes the rest of his first brownie*

I'm also quite the workaholic, so doing Gregory is really the only fun I have time for.

~Mycroft

From:

queer-theory.livejournal.com

*nods* I like Greg. He was nice to me once when he didn't have to be.

*sits back in her seat* I don't know what you do. It's... secret, yes?

- Molly

Gregory is a wonderful man. He saved Sherlock when he didn't need to. Pulled him out of the gutter and gave him a reason to get off the drugs. Even I couldn't accomplish that.

Officially, I occupy a minor position in the British Government. Unofficially, well let's just say I have the ability to make Gregory's ex-wife's life very unpleasant. Just don't tell him I said that - he'll be cross that I'm meddling.

~Mycroft

From:

queer-theory.livejournal.com

*laughs* Mycroft, what have you done?

- Molly

From:

csichick-2.livejournal.com

She will never be able to park illegally ever again without getting a ticket. As for her new boyfriend, well it's not my fault the tax audit revealed that he actually is guilty of tax evasion.

~Mycroft

queer-theory.livejournal.com

*giggles* Remind me never to cross Mycroft Holmes.

- Molly

From:

csichick-2.livejournal.com

Clearly, that woman was mentally deficient. Why else would someone be unfaithful to such a wonderful, attractive man.

~Mycroft

From:

queer-theory.livejournal.com

*nods, taking a deep breath*

He's wonderful. He really is.

- Molly, eternally single

From:

csichick-2.livejournal.com

I'm making you uncomfortable. I'm sorry.

~Mycroft

From:

queer-theory.livejournal.com

Being unloved is making me uncomfortable. It's not you.

- Molly, who gets really honest while high... who knew

From:

csichick-2.livejournal.com

Oh Molly...

Don't lose faith that you'll find someone.

Before Gregory, I thought I was destined to be alone.

~Mycroft

From:

queer-theory.livejournal.com

I know the feeling.

*remembers Greg flirting with her at Christmas*

- Molly

From:

csichick-2.livejournal.com

We'll just have to find you someone that can truly appreciate just how special you are. And is heterosexual.

~Mycroft

From:

queer-theory.livejournal.com

To be fair, John and Greg are probably bisexual.

- Molly

((Greg would probably say that he's "Mycroftsexual."))

From:

csichick-2.livejournal.com

I would have to agree with you, though I believe John's preferred term would be Sherlocksexual.

~Mycroft

((There's just something about those Holmes boys.))

From:

queer-theory.livejournal.com

*nods* I'm aware.

- Molly

From:

csichick-2.livejournal.com

Enough about that though. Talking about them isn't going to find you someone.

~Mycroft

((Apparently getting high makes him want to play matchmaker. Who knew?))
