Mrs B
![]() ![]() We leave on Eurostar, 1st class, to Paris. Across Paris to Gard Du Lyon, then the overnighter to Rome, via the Alps - 15 hrs so it goes through the Alps in daylight. 1 week in Rome, then back to Paris for a few days.

Ever done Eurostar before?
We went on for the first time this year and it was brill. I found it much more relaxing than flying, especially with the kids Hope the Alps aren't shrouded in cloud when you pass through them ![]()
