France, Switzerland, Italy ... the train journey (well, four separate trains) was unspeakably beautiful - rural France, the Jura, Lake Geneva, Lago Maggiore, Milan ... and then it got dark, but I'm safely in Florence, now. I may never consider taking a flight within Europe again (apart from next week) - this is a stunning way to do it. I'm very, very grateful to that strike ... not to mention for the fact that I have relatively light bags, and I have all the languages necessary to get from the Gare de Lyon to here ... all the same, I felt a bit like a caricature of an American, Doing Europe at speed ...
