That way , no need to carry camera around. I never, ever leave the house without a camera.<BR/>OOD: yes, there's something certainly romantic abt train journeyts. But recently I am reminded of the smell of the toilets on the train. i wonder what it was. Ithink its the smell of tar, or was it the guy on the British rail who did not lock the toilet?Kak Tehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00856864485917633260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-1115275892037041202005-05-05T07:51:00.000+01:002005-05-05T07:51:00.000+01:00Kak Teh,train rides are always romantic!

If you get from UK, you could only get on 2nd class. I think the price is the same.<BR/>Kak teh: true, U automatically see the different sceneries and different facial expression on local faces. I was once in Czekoslovakia (before it became 2 countries) The Czekos (males) are the best looking men I have seen. Somewhere in east germany, a boy stared at me and my friend R cos we looked different and later I realised that we were carrying banannas, which nobody in that part of the country ever saw.<BR/>well..jauh perjalanan luas pemandanganMutiarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15634648293657550195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-1115013769756046702005-05-02T07:02:00.000+01:002005-05-02T07:02:00.000+01:00Tak nak tulis apa-apa..Kak N dah potong stim.Nak P...Tak nak tulis apa-apa..Kak N dah potong stim.<BR/><BR/>Nak Pi Rome!<BR/>Nak Pi Rome!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11018866726893370836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9776295.post-1115006590014457212005-05-02T05:03:00.000+01:002005-05-02T05:03:00.000+01:00mutiara: dont u think the scenery changes quite dr...mutiara: dont u think the scenery changes quite dramatically when we get to eastern europe? u just know that u've crossed the border to the other side.<BR/>mobilemom: we did the Eurostar several times to France and Holland.

In 1998, my hubby, two kids and I took a night train from Paris to Milan. I was expecting Eurorail but kena KTM senandung malam kelas 3. LOL! We did not buy tickets for the kids age 8/6 yrs. I pening all the way 'cos takut sempit. Nightmare la.<BR/><BR/>Then, we travelled further from Milan to Rome, stopping several places in a period of 2 weeks.
