train to Chamonix

FRANCE | Thursday, 8 November 2007 | Views [684]

I left Nice this morning at 7am.  The ride along the coast for the sunrise was incredible!  The sun looked like a huge ball of molton rising out of the sea, it appeared to be spread out over the surface and then slowing becoming a ball of glowing red, as it rose it started behind a cloud and the rays rose above the cloud, so gorgeous.  The coast was sparkleing and the beaches desserted with the exception of some dogs and owners out for a stroll.

The dog scene here is dog friendly in a way I have never seen!!!  There are dogs allowed anywhere people go, airports,trains,bathrooms,restaurants, they are off limits nowhere...Taie would have been welcome, although she may have been eaten once we got to Africa..sooo.....

I just left the station at Annency and the countryside is beautiful again, high jagged mountains and lower hills covered with pretty fall colors, green grass and cows and sheep and lovely old farmhouses.  The mountains have snagged all the clouds so we are traveling in the sunshine, the weather is much cooler up here though!!!!  I will be in Chamonix by 5:30pm and then what I don't have any idea, I guess switzerland tonight or maybe in the morning, I have 2 days and then back to Amsterdam,need to find out just how long it will take to make it there from where I am now....
