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.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Laugh it up." He said finishing his bottle of beer and opening another for them both. "Possession and drunk and disorderly. Not my finest moments." He told her a bit sheepishly.

"Wouldn't you like to know!" He winked at her again.

She takes the bottle of beer from him, taking another sip. "Drunk and disorderly? What were you doing?" She can't help but giggle at the idea.

"I most definitely would," she said,"And I'm gonna find out."

"We should get something stronger than this to drink. What do you think?"

"Ummm... Ryan and I were so drunk we thought it would be a good idea to run down the streets of new york city in just our underwear." He blushed slightly at the memory. All in all though, that had been a pretty awesome night.

"We'll see about that."

"I think that's an excellent idea. Lady's choice." He said pointing at the phone.

"YOu almost went streaking, then?" she's not sure why it's so amusing, but she's having trouble imagining this guy, who is into her and has yet to make any move really stripping down and runnign through the town.

She picks up the phone and calls down to the front desk, giving the room number before saying. "Well have a bottle of bourbon. The best you got. And some soda, yeah, coca cola is good. Thanks."

She hangs up and teases. "I hope you can hang with the big boys."

~Fiona

He laughed. "Yeah, it was actually really fun."

He raised his eyebrow at her choice of liquor not really picturing her as a bourbon type.

"Is that a challenge?"

~Seth

[ondragonflywing.livejournal.com]

She laughs,"I bet it was. Maybe you'll be drunk enough by the end of the night for a repeat performance."

He asks if it was a challenge and she scoffed a little and nodded, sure she could win this one.

"Oh, yeah. Absolutely a challenge. We may need more than one bottle."

~Fiona

[dannni444.livejournal.com]

He laughs and shakes his head. "I don't think that is gonna happen."

"Lets see how you feel after the first bottle." He said playfully with a wink.

~Seth

"Let's see if you're in your underwear after the first bottle," she teases back in response.

The bottle arrives and they begin to drink, joking around more, touching a little more frequently. Eventually they end up laying on the bed, watching some completely ridiculous show.

"We should totally get out of here. Do something fun. Something we can't do at home. Something that is only here in Amsterdam." She added the last part so he wouldn't suggest a movie or dancing or something.

Seth tried to think about it but his brain wasn't fully connecting at the moment. He remembered hearing someone say something about a place that he had to at least check out. "Someone told me of this place that I just had to check out while i was here. I just can't remember what that name of it was. it had some sort of color in it. purple? green? no RED! it was definitely red! red something!" He was thinking out loud now in hopes that she might just know what he's talking about. "Let's got there!"

~Seth

[ondragonflywing.livejournal.com]

Her eyes looked excited when he said he heard of somewhere that they had to go. and then he started naming colors. Purple? Green? "Blue?" she tried to suggest helpfully before he settled on red.

"Red?" she arches a brow at him,"Are you sure it was red?"

Then she bursts into a fit of giggles as she realizes where he might be talking about. she grabs his hand, jumping off of the bed.

"Yes, let's go there!" She didn't want to say the name in case his alcohol addled brain still had enough common sense to abort mission, since he didn't seem like the kind of guy who would go there with a girl at all, let alone one he barely knew. She pulled him out into a cab and told the driver. "To the red light district."

Seth wasn't quite sure why she was laughing so hard but he just shrugged and smiled at her. He grabbed her hand and allowed himself to be pulled through the hotel and into the taxi.

"Yeah!" he exclaimed, "That's totally where they told me to go. You're a genius!" He said patting her leg and moving closer.

~Seth

She laughed again when he agreed that that's where they told him to go. He pats her leg and slides closer and she grins, shimmying her way closer to him, until their shoulders are touching.

she turns her head to look at him, her nose brushing against his cheek, not having really realized their proximity.

She rests her hand on his leg, his knee. "I'm not one of those too fucking often," she says before breaking into giggles. Her hand lazily sliding up his leg, almost as if she didn't know what she was doing.

his entire body tingles when he feels her breath mix with his, but he chalks it up to the alcohol running through his system for the time being.

He lets out a short laugh, "well, you are. don't let anyone tell you differently!" He tells her and wraps his arm around her pulling her into a side hug. The tingles come back when he feels her fingers working up his leg. That's when he realizes that it's not the alcohol making him tingle, but her. He would never admit it, because THAT would make him feel like such a girl.

~Seth

With her brother around it's nearly impossible to even pretend to be a genius. But she kind of likes that he thinks she is. Even if it is probably largely the alcohol talking.

When he wraps his arm around her, she lets him pull her closer. She sees him reacting to her touch, so she leans in and captures his lips with her own, kissing him.

~Fiona

[dannni444.livejournal.com]

Even though he should have been he wasn't expecting her to lean over and kiss him, so he freezes for a moment before returning the kiss.

his free hand finds it's way to her cheek guiding her face more towards his own.


~Seth

[ondragonflywing.livejournal.com]

At first he freezes and she wonders if the kiss was too much. and how easily he could be persuaded to not dislike it.

Until his free hand moved up to rest on her cheek and pull her closer. He was so gentle. She wasn't used to that.

she pressed her body against his a bit more, as her tongue ran over his lips, asking for permission to deepen the kiss.
